This could be a neat way to bootstrap a MAME/MESS competitor project.

Doesn't QEMU do the same?

Yes but QEMU also does much much more. This is more specific.

no x86 front-end!

Would you have tackled it first while trying to build such a library? I'd have started with 6502 or m68k as well. x86 is pretty huge, take a look at the x86 ISA docs sometime.

(We're talking 3-5 PDFs at 500+ pages each iirc, but that includes x86-64. Even if you go back and look at say the Pentium 3 manuals they are still quite large.)
