There is at least one problem with -virtfs if you forget to specify
the "security_model=xxx" option:

$ x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -virtfs 
local,id=shared,path=/tmp,mount_tag=tag
qemu-system-x86_64: util/qemu-option.c:547: opt_set: Assertion `opt->str' 
failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

According to the qemu-doc, the securit_model is optional, so it
should be possible to run qemu without it, too, shouldn't it?
