AFAIK:

* System qemu does not support Atari machines
* While m68k user-qemu is very much used by Debian m68k port, it 
supports only Linux kernel, so it would not be much use for Atari testing


Hatari could be used for testing though, although its slower than 
Aranym.  Both offer NatFeats APIs, and Hatari supports also remote 
control, either through given "--cmd-fifo", or "--control-socket".
