kvm-58 as released doesn't build in ia64 either because of the tpr/vapic
changes that were done at release date as shown by :

gcc  -Wl,-G0 -Wl,-T,/house/cmarenas/kvm-58/qemu/ia64.ld -L

Xiantao, are there any plans to merge into qemu all changes required to get
host/guest support for ia64?, if for nothing else that could help with
problems due to qemu merges.

Avi, how would you like patches to fix build issues in ia64 to be handled?,
should be expected that kvm releases build for ia64? is there any system that
could be used as part of a compile farm / testing for ia64?

if nothing is available hp's testdrive have some itanium systems that could be
used at least to validate the userspace part builds (as I did) :

PS. there are more warnings and other issues in that build that the ones shown
above.
