at least in my case, out of confusion, as it gets installed and is not
prepared to work in an installed tree but in the root of a compiled one, hence
generating errors when executed.

FWIW, it is also being used by debian in their kvm package installed in
/etc/kvm/utils/kvm as you can see from :

  http://packages.debian.org/sid/kvm

I agree though that it isn't really that useful, and in that case it should
be probably removed (or at least not part of make install)
