The correctly named executable is the renamed one, as it is then 
consistent with what is in every other nativesdk- package (Linux-hosted 
ones), so the intercept script can properly pick it up. It is not used 
anywhere else except there.

This is tangential to how the executable should be called. Yes, the 
qemuwrapper is allowed to fail, that why it's a warning and not a hard 
failure. When building target images, the fallback to this failure is 
deferring the script to first boot. For SDKs we currently do nothing, 
which means package installation isn't really completed. If SDKs aren't 
able to function properly because of this, we can implement a similar 
deferral of some kind to the environment where those binaries can be 
executed natively without emulation.
