I've used an x86_64 host with Ubuntu to build SystemTap modules and run
them on Android ARM, so it's doable. But, I don't think SystemTap is
relevant here if you're trying to do architectural simulation. SystemTap is
a profiling tool that uses kprobes; it doesn't really do userspace
profiling last time I checked.
