I answered Steve's original thread before I saw this and also added
http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/QEMU_Upstream#Why_is_qemu-system-i386_used_even_on_x86_64_and_even_non-x86.3F
to the wiki.

If anyone things that anything mention in this subthread is worth recording
there then please do update the wiki.

Ian.
