XP image creayed with kvm-16 doesn't work with kvm-19

Should images created with older version in general work with newer versions?

Anyhow, my XP vm just sits at a black screen with or without the modules
loaded (I using those built installed from the package, not the old ones
installed with my Feisty installation).

Reverting to kvm-16, again with or without the -16 modules, and it works fine.

I created the vm with
qemu-system-x86_64 -hda vdisk.qcow -cdrom xp.iso -boot d -m 384

and run it (as root) with

qemu-system-x86_64 . -hda xp.qcow -boot c -m 512

Any clues as to what goes on?

TIA
