It is not clear under what host/osversion kqemu can be used reliably.
See
http://m2.dad-answers.com/qemu-forum/viewforum.php?f=16&sid=cc4b0c564718db9b16ef279d73017615
for more reports of kqemu not working. under FreeBSD. Also
there was a report on 9fans mailing about kqemu not working
on a ubuntu linux host. They are not all A bug does not have
to manifest itself everywhere before it gets fixed. I gaver
a clear repeatable test that works on at least freebsd (but I
suspect also on some linux versions) which should make it
easy to track this down. Unfortunately I can't do much more
than this not having kqemu sources (which is its authors's
right -- I am just pointing out what I can do under the
circumstance).
