By "does not use kvm", you mean pure software emulation? Enjoy the factor 50 
slowdown!

(Yes, I've tried this, it was the only way for me to build x86_64 packages 
locally before I got the Core 2 Duo notebook, as I only had a 32-bit-only 
Pentium 4 Northwood desktop and an ancient Pentium II laptop, which was of 
course 32-bit-only as well. A package which normally takes 10 minutes to 
build took 8 hours under QEMU software emulation.)
