 All my test results were obtained using the same version of KVM
 (qemu-kvm 0.12.3 and the kvm.ko in the Ubuntu 2.6.32-25-server
 kernel); the NetBSD versions tested were all recently built from
 date-based checkouts of historic sources.
 
 I don't know whether or not the versions of NetBSD that failed to boot
 with this version of KVM would boot with older versions of KVM, and I
 don't have an easy way to test that.

 There is a regression on our part, in the sense that a newer version
 of NetBSD fails where an older version works, everything else being
 equal.  Lacking an easy way of testing old KVM versions, I can't say
 whether or not there is also a regression on KVM's part.
