Indeed, this would be nice. I have been working around this by manually building the runtime library for RISC-V in order to use it on an x86 host. It would be better to integrate this in the build system so I might try this out soon.

Done! It was a bit tricky though to produce an AArch64 binary suitable for instrumentation on x86. I had to:
- Force a dummy relocation;
- Add a dummy `_fini` function to force `DT_FINI` to be emitted;
- Link with `-pie` (to avoid a static binary being created).
Please let me know if there's an easier way to accomplish this.
