There are a few problems with this patch. First, it should be against qemu.git
and 0.15.1 is a bit of an old release (we're moving towards 1.1).

Also, I'm not sure that we should completely rely on the file extension,
maybe we should have an argument for it...

Anyway, I recommend you join the efforts for the new screendump command
along with Marc-Andre and Alon.
