This is a bug in Ubuntu's gnutls package:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnutls26/+bug/1478035

You can work around it by adding "--disable-gnutls" to
your configure arguments, or by applying this patch:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/499821/

I would expect that patch to be applied for QEMU 2.4.
