Hi Elliott, I haven't heard of anyone working on this (please speak up if you have), but it's a great idea and we'd be glad to give you a hand it getting it to work.
As Geoff pointed out, one straightforward way to do it would be to run under FS mode; then you won't have the problem of emulating additional syscalls. However if you want to run under SE mode it shouldn't be that hard to get things up either. The stat64 call should be pretty straightforward to fix... we implement stat/lstat/fstat and lstat64/fstat64 so triangulating among those to figure out stat64 shouldn't be too hard. I'm sure the only reason stat64 isn't there is that no one has needed it yet. Basically you'll need to add a stat64Func in src/sim/syscall_emul.hh that looks like statFunc but calls stat64() instead (basically apply the same diffs as between fstatFunc and fstat64Func), then add a pointer to that function to the Alpha Linux syscall table in src/arch/alpha/linux/process.cc. The other core dumps and page table faults should be fixable too (if they're not things we've already fixed since the last release... got to get that public repo access going!, but we'd need more details on what those are to say more.
