We've talked about this at length but I'd like to pull the trigger. The
user-visible change would be that -enable-kqemu would be required to
explicitly request kqemu support instead of enabling it by default.
kqemu would still be enabled by default at build time.
Do you object to this Paul?

i have no objection to disabling kqemu by default *at runtime*. This would
make it the same as kvm.
On principle I object to having code that is disabled by default at configure
time. IMO that code should either be removed or fixed. If we were to disable
kqemu at configure time for 0.11 then I would expect to remove the code from
trunk shortly after 0.11 was released.

I've left kqemu enabled in the build but just defaulted it to off at
runtime.
