Yeah, the current qemu -git was broken by this commit:
9dfd7c7a00dd700de36ca58005a7cb3934a62efb is first bad commit
commit 9dfd7c7a00dd700de36ca58005a7cb3934a62efb

switch -drive to QemuOpts.
Demo QemuOpts in action ;)
Implementing a alternative way to specify the filename should be
just a few lines of code now once we decided how the cmd line syntax
should look like.

I found this out by attempting to install a Fedora 11 image this morning,
with:
qemu -m 512 -hda fedora-11.img -cdrom Fedora-11-i686-Live.iso -boot d
Current qemu can't do that. The one before the above commit could.
