i have no objection to disabling kqemu by default *at runtime*. This would 
make it the same as kvm.

On principle I object to having code that is disabled by default at configure 
time. IMO that code should either be removed or fixed. If we were to disable 
kqemu at configure time for 0.11 then I would expect to remove the code from 
trunk shortly after 0.11 was released.
