OK, I'll try with 1.0-rc3, but before that just a quick query - I use the 
Fedora source rpm as a basis and do "rpmbuild -bp qemu.spec" to prepare the 
source. This, according to the said .spec file, applies the following patches 
(by Fedora, not me):

Patch01: 0001-char-Split-out-tcp-socket-close-code-in-a-separate-f.patch

I am almost certain that the majority of these will fail with the new source, 
so I'll try to build without those. Is that OK?

Interesting. I'll do a "vanilla" build (with no patches applied) and see how it 
goes, unless you have something else in mind?
