Bug Description
Windows XP 32bit guest (and centos 64 bit guest) with virtio network/disk fails to start.
windows VM:
LC_ALL=C PATH=/usr/
Centos VM:
LC_ALL=C PATH=/usr/
char device redirected to /dev/pts/1
VM just shows black screen on start and CPU spins out at max usage but nothing happens in the VM.
Nothing seems to get logged (the bit above is from the libvirt/qemu log file) but the same VMs work fine on previous kernel of 2.6.32-21-generic.

Testing with IDE devices instead of virtio shos no difference. Manually running kvm with -cpu qem64,-nx also shows no difference so don't believe it is NX related this time (but not ruling it out) however the symptoms are similar to that old bug.
