   Okay, what's confusing me about the above is that this appears to relate to 
*compiling* the kqemu kernel module.  This may not be necessary; look through 
the available packages and see if there is a kqemu-modules-* package for the 
kernel you're currently running.  If there is, install it, then 'modprobe 
kqemu' to load the module.  If you want the kqemu module to load on every 
boot, add it to the list of modules in /etc/modules.

   I likewise build the kqemu module from source, but I don't get the 
big/little endian failure.  If you want to compile kqemu from source and get 
around the big/little endian failure message, you can probably modify the 
setting in /usr/src/modules/kqemu/configure and hardcode it to:

   bigendian="no"

which should hopefully get around that issue.
