Can you rename the function to run_qemu or something like that?
Otherwise it's not clear that it actually runs "$@".

Whoa! :)  So stdout goes to {stdout} and from there to the real stdout;
stderr instead is tee'd to stderr and $errors.

Is the "tee" and "cat" necessary?  Can you just use printf somewhat like:

	# stdout to {stdout}, stderr to $errors
	errors=$("$@" 2>&1 1>&${stdout})
	ret=$?
	printf '%s\n' "$errors" >&2

?  Or something like that (for example I'm not sure if you need the \n).

In either case, stdout and stderr can be mixed.

Please use a pipe instead of a <(...):

	(echo "#! /bin/bash"
	 cat scripts/arch-run.bash "$TEST_DIR/run") | tempfile RUNTIME_arch_run

by changing this in temp_file:

	local file="$2"
	gzip - < $file

to

	local file="${2--}"
	gzip -c "$file"
