I think that management would prefer it.  It is developers who try to
loadvm several times on the same machine.  For management, if loadvm
fails, having to restart qemu is the less of its problems, they already
have infrastructure to kill process and rerun (probably with something
tweeaked).

And we are thankful for the review :)
