It can be simpler, perhaps you are trying to use some a.out (not elf)
program, and you don't have configured the support for that direcly on the
kernel,
but as a module.

I you have a recent kernel, it can be handled with the binfmt_misc.o module.
Try adding <alias binfmt-0000 binfmt_misc> in your /etc/modules.conf or
/etc/conf.modules.
