I have tried here, and the running architecture still has the priority
over binfmt. 

The problem of excluding the running architecture is that you have to 
use a map between qemu and debian architecture, and the map is not
always 1:1. For example qemu-arm executes both arm and armel code.
OTOH sparc code can be executed either by qemu-sparc or 
qemu-sparc64abi32 depending if it needs a 32 or 64-bit CPU.
