I think we can zap this, was in use for a while one year ago, but in the end it turned out we can keep qxl compatible to older versions and we've ended up just bumping the pci revision (which needs to stay configurable because there are picky guest drivers in the wild which refuse to work if they find the revision being 2 instead of 1). cheers, Gerd
