there's a typo line 1432 on vl.c after applying all 4 patches
(missing ';')
C:/msys/1.0/home/Xian/qemu/vl.c: In function `win32_start_timer':
C:/msys/1.0/home/Xian/qemu/vl.c:1432: error: syntax error before '}' token
make[1]: *** [vl.o] Error 1
beyond this small typo, I managed to include this in a win32 qemu build.
is there a specific practical test to see the improvement in a linux guest
when running on a windows host ?
