### Please describe the problem.
git-annex doesn't start on [Android-x86](http://www.android-x86.org) in VirtualBox (version 4.1.18-dfsg-2+deb7u1).
On Android 4.2.2 (android-x86-4.2-20130228.iso) it starts the terminal which prints nothing but `[Terminal session finished]`.
On Android 4.3 (android-x86-4.3-20130725.iso) it starts the terminal and prints:
In mgmain JNI_OnLoad
[Terminal session finished]
The browser/webapp is never started.
### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
Version 1.0.52 for Android. I made sure to install the correct APK files for each version of Android.

git-annex is a native binary, and is currently only being built for arm android.
Is Android on x86 a thing used on real-world hardware? I have only seen it in the context of a developer's test environment.
The instructions for building git-annex from source for Android should work on x86. The ghc-android build would need to be tweaked to build a cross compiler targeting that architecture. This can be done by editing settings near the top of ghc-android's `build.sh`.
I am going to move this from bugs/ to todo/ after posting this comment, because it is certiantly not a bug, but a wishlist item at best.
