Package that attempts to run ARM binaries

I am trying to build the Gambas[0] runtime for OpenEmbedded/Angstrom,
and while, with some hacks just for testing, I can get the C/C++ code
parts to compile, the install phase fails when the build system attempts
to extract information from the various library components that have
been compiled. To do this, it uses it's information tool (gbi2), which
is an ARM binary (in this case). This of course fails on my x86_64 box
running OpenEmbedded. Is there an accepted way to use something like
QEMU to run ARM binaries that need run, as Scratchbox does, or do I need
to figure out some way to use Scratchbox to compile this thing?

Thanks in advance.
