It's included in Anthony's staging tree:

http://repo.or.cz/w/qemu/aliguori-queue.git

which means it can be flushed to the main git tree in the near future.

The current process of picking up patches is not verbose at all;
developers either have to wait till the patch magically appears in the
git tree or keep resending it.
