Does anyone have this working with FC11?

I installed FC11 on a new laptop, replacing my old FC9-running laptop 
last week and I have been unable to run my Vista guest since:

I've been running this guest since ~kvm-75 on FC9. Dropping the smp, usb 
and full-screen options doesn't help. The crash is after the cylon 
Windows startup bar but before the login screen.

Host is FC11 x86_64, 2.6.29.4-167.fc11.x86_64. Intel P8700. 4GB memory.
Guest is Vista Ultimate 64.

An added bonus is that the crash leaves Xorg in 640x480 resolution. I've 
also seen just a seg fault instead of the "Bad ram" error.

gdb reports the following if this is at all helpful:
