I created soft links to the qemu-xen-unstable tree:

rwxrwxrwx  1 zhigang zhigang       12 2010-05-28 15:19 ioemu-dir -> ioemu-remote
lrwxrwxrwx  1 zhigang zhigang       23 2010-05-11 08:23 ioemu-remote ->
../../qemu-xen-unstable

So it will not checkout the tag.

Seems the QEMU_TAG hack is not a good enough. I'm wondering whether can we make
master always be compiled and rename QEMU_TAG to QEMU_BRANCH? All experimental
patches go to another branch and users set the QEMU_BRANCH for testing.

Thanks,
