Works fine. At least make successfully creates a uml binary and I can create, 
mount and unmount an xfs file system. Creating and deleting a file also works 
fine.

I did not do any intensive testing as I am not going to use it now anyway, as 
hostfs has become the better choice. (Actually, I had already decided against 
xfs before reporting the bug.)

I never intended to actually use an i486 comaptible build. I will be using 
"Opteron/Athlon64/Hammer/K8". However, I wonder if there are any problems 
using i486 besides performance loss. Will this break things?
