A variant, which worked for me, was to pass the loader library directly and to specify the required library paths using the loader parameter --library-path. For example:

$ qemu-arm $TOOLCHAIN_ROOT/libc/lib/ld-linux-armhf.so.3 --library-path $TOOLCHAIN_ROOT/libc/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf:/$TOOLCHAIN_ROOT/lib ./my_executable

Or equivalently export LD_LIBRARY_PATH instead of using --library-path.
