 As another data point, I didn't see this problem when doing an anita
 install of NetBSD using the qemu 1.7.1 release on a Linux host (having
 built this Linux qemu from source by manually running configure and
 make, not using pkgsrc).
 
 Therefore, I think we can eliminate the possibility I raised earlier
 in this PR that problem might be triggered by the use of a released
 version of qemu as opposed to the git mainline.  That leaves two
 candidates: the use of NetBSD as the host (as opposed to Linux), or
 the use of pkgsrc as the build environment (as opposed to configure +
 make).
