it was silly of me to discard the qemu-tap stuff actually... Unless I use
tunneling, I cannot access the guest from the windows host directly
using an IP address. And windows refuses to mount something like
\\10.0.2.16:5555\

The problem disappears if I use tap-win32...

So now I can do some linux specific stuff inside the guest (kernel compilation)
and get the result out of the guest filesystem using samba (launch
a parallel session of qemu on windows using the freshly compiled kernel)

If someone one day finds a way to do it using slirp/user mode, I'm
still interested... :)
