Any news on the possible cvs->svn migration?  I'd submit a cleanup patch to 
rip out the remaining traces of code_copy_enabled, but the git mirror I 
follow (git://git.kernel.dk/data/git/qemu.git) hasn't updated in several days 
so I'm not actually sure it's still there in cvs.

Just checked and http://savannah.nongnu.org/svn/?group=qemu isn't there 
either...
