Re: -std-vga causes crash

[Pelle <Pelle-5JapdU7xTciEVqv0pETR8A@public.gmane.org>]

The message that this should be fixed was reason for me to test it 
again, and it fails miserably, even on kvm-36
I checked with "modinfo kvm-intel" that i am in fact using kvm-36,
processor is a core 2 duo 6300

$ /usr/local/bin/qemu -hda winXP.img -hdb vdisk.img -m 256 -soundhw 
es1370 -std-vga
