Yes, but I caution you before using it. You shouldn't use the patch unless you
know what you are doing, and why you have to do it.

Also keep in mind that even with the patch, qemu doesn't always compile.
x86 guests on x86 hosts don't work because of another bug that causes
gcc to run out of registers, so it still won't compile. x86 guests on
x86_64 hosts (e.g. amd64 cpus running in 64bit mode) do work, though, and
I'd imagine that x86 guests on ppc hosts work as well.
