Much better. :-)

I spent a few hours once wondering why QEMU worked great until the
Windows guest did its first network access, and then QEMU crashed...

Turns out I was passing "-net user" twice on the command line, due to
a typo in my management program.

I'd already had to find workarounds for other crashes in the guest and
a bug in QEMU up to that point, so I wasn't expecting it to be so simple :-)
