Ken, this is known to currently *not* work. As Andreas has already indirectly explained, qemu does not provide full m68k emulation.
Instead, it supports the reduced m68k instruction set of Motorola's ColdFire CPU only. If you need a QEMU version with full m68k support, please have a look at Laurent Vivier's github repository [1]. You also shouldn't file bugs which are clearly upstream-related to the Ubuntu bugtracker. Ubuntu doesn't even support m68k but Debian does. Still, we also can't do anything about such bugs in Debian, these belong upstream.
