I have determined, by the way, a much more precise location for the bug.
I can start a Knoppix image, which can reliably resolve hostnames, and
ping the host machine. I then tried a http-over-telnet, to test TCP. I
connect, send/receive data just fine. The moment I Ctrl+C the telnet,
that's when qemu dies. So I suspect the bug is related to the TCP close
code. I shall investigate further...
