Currently, there are two incompatible networking APIs. One that uses
CONFIG_NET_MULTI, and one that doesn't. I'm trying to move everything
towards the former (single-port applications are of course a degenerate
instance of multi-port ones). Once all drivers have been ported to the
MULTI API, that config option will magically disappear.

The NE2000 driver hasn't been ported yet. It's on my short term to-do
list, and will be in the next release (01.2010, I guess?)

This won't do anything other than disabling networking. Since QEMU is
an emulator, though, maybe it would make sense to use a device driver
that has CONFIG_NET_MULTI support?

If the warning isn't more than a nuisance, please live with it for now.
