I just tried running configure on x86 and amd_64 and I got no
kvm support (field 'arch' has incomplete type). Is this the
expected result?

Just for fun I also tried running configure in the top-level kvm
directory and got thousands of unkillable 'configure' processes
that quickly filled my 1-gig swap partition. I doubt that's the
expected result :-)
