Having updated my Debian stable to next stable (trixie) last week, I 
noticed that qemu-kvm was removed [1].

I don't know why, when or how, but it's just an example that things can 
change, and people can survive to it.

For the concerned other distros, if at least one packager asks us to 
provide a "./configure --default-target", it will be an excellent reason 
and opportunity to do it.

But before that, let's first build this single binary, let's see if it's 
useful, let's see how to use it, and eventually, let's see how to 
package this and cover corner cases.
