This has been an error for more than 6 years, and nobody complained so
far. I understand that the machines should be testable with qtest, but
such as change has been merged already. Now there is no reason to not
fix this *regression* from version 1.5.
People should understand that QEMU is not only x86, and that not
everything should be done the x86 way.
