I'm wondering whether we can more or less remedy that by running
migration-test under the build-previous directory for cross-binary tests.
We don't necessarily need to cross-test anything new happening anyway.

IOW, we use both old QEMU / migration-test for "n-1", and we only use "n"
for the new QEMU binary?
