FYI, I have some addition bug fixes that I will be adding in a new patch set 
(v3) and will be rebasing to HEAD.

Also, I'll make the change from HOST_ABI_DIR to HOST_VARIANT_DIR.  The idea is 
if someone wanted to run, say, OpenBSD targets on a FreeBSD host it would use 
the code in the bsd-user/freebsd directory to do that.   The code would need to 
support emulation for OpenBSD system calls that are not already natively 
supported by FreeBSD.
