still not working for us, there is even a small regression.

- centos 32bit guest hang during boot at different places (see screenshot).
- centos 64bit guest boot but crash (or at least dump stack strace on
console) the other screenshot.
- winxp guest are hang during boot.
- mandrake 32bit guest are not able to start the kernel.

with single cpu:
- mandrake 32bit guest are hang during boot after a 3th shutdown,
restart finally it's able to boot and run.
