That requires a bridge on the host and a tap device backend. Upcoming
qemu-1.1 will even have a helper daemon to create those tap devices with
raised privileges and allow unprivileged QEMU instances to use them.

In fact, the new style configuration is "-netdev user,id=mynet -device
e1000,netdev=mynet". That avoids the internal vlans and allows for more
efficient networking (virtio frontend + vhost backend).

Well, there is more, and you can easily get lost on the documentation of
old and new features...
