Wish I could get those results.

Compile from source.  I have detailed logs of the whole build process.
Everything looks just fine until I try to use it.

I am somewhat curious about these results also and I look at them with a
close eye.  The real issue is time to dig into the problems.  The exact
same guest machines ( ppc64, risc-v, x86_64 ) all work fine with the
2.12.1 packages on FreeBSD and 2.12.0 on Debian testing.

Any attempt ( thus far ) to build 3.1.0 qemu results in fairly
unsatisfactory results and that is with really trivial CFLAGS involved.
Certainly not strict c99 nor any debug gymnastics.

I'll look at this again after the holidays.
