I'm (one of?) the one(s) who e-mail Jerone about the patch.

I added a similar patch to the Ubuntu packages for the Hardy release,
because we wanted to build with gcc 4.x, and the buzz at the time was
that TCG was still somewhat experimental, so I wasn't too hot on the
idea of supporting it for 5 years.  The existence of
--disable-cpu-emulation keeps me from having to maintain a delta to do
the same thing. 

If TCG is considered stable, then I'm cool with not having a
--disable-cpu-emulation switch, but if it's still considered pre-beta
stuff, then I'd very much like to keep it.  It should be trivial to
leave it out, when we try (again) to get kvm and qemu merged and then we
can deal with it some other way.
