Jim has already responded with details on the first for the particular
issue, but speaking more generally ...
The kvm-XX releases are snapshots of the development tree. They do not
go to through the kind of stabilisation cycle you would expect from a
new kernel release, for example.
If you want a KVM version you can trust, use the latest qemu-kvm-0.x.y
release with the stock version of kvm.ko that comes with your kernel or,
if you need particular new features, the latest kvm-kmod-2.6.z release.
Cheers,
Mark.
