using --output-type dyn on an arm executable

[Corbin Champion]

I have had success modifying and running a executable after changing it to a shared object via the use of elfedit --output-type dyn /bin/grep for an i386.

But, I get a segmentation fault whenever I do similar for executables on an arm based machine.  Here is what I think is the minimal set of commands to reproduce it:

apt-get install binfmt-support qemu qemu-user-static debootstrap

mkdir debian_armel_wheezy

debootstrap --foreign --arch armel wheezy debian_armel_wheezy http://ftp.debian.org/debian/

cp /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static debian_armel_wheezy/usr/bin

DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive DEBCONF_NONINTERACTIVE_SEEN=true \ LC_ALL=C LANGUAGE=C LANG=C chroot debian_armel_wheezy /debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stage

DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive DEBCONF_NONINTERACTIVE_SEEN=true \ LC_ALL=C LANGUAGE=C LANG=C chroot debian_armel_wheezy dpkg --configure -a

vi /etc/apt/sources.list

add these

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main contrib non-free

apt-get update
 

apt-get install binutils

elfedit --output-type dyn /bin/grep

grep

Is this a known issue?  What else do you need from me to help debug this? 

Thanks,
