I'd strongly suggest to move forward to qemu 1.0. Memory region
handling has seen a major rewrite in 1.0 (memory api patches by avi).
Chances are good that the 64bit bar bugs in qemu have been fixed meanwhile.
I have experimental patches which add a 64bit bar to the qxl device and
seabios handles it just fine (although memory-backed not mmio), except
that there is no support yet to map 64bit bars above 4G.
It shouldn't be that hard to add the latter though. seabios needs two
more pci_region_type (PCI_REGION_TYPE_MEM_64 and
PCI_REGION_TYPE_PREFMEM_64) to track and map 64bit bars separately. And
a address space window where it can map 64bit bars to.

... and a _CRS entry for the 64bit bar address space window of course.
cheers,
Gerd
