I noticed that package kernel-3.3.2-2.fc17.armv5tel was available for update, and I downloaded the package with yum, along with some other packages (under kernel 2.6.42.9-1.fc15.armv5tel). The good news is that this new kernel boots correctly with its
initramfs with qemu. The bad news is that something is causing segfaults when trying to bring up the network services, as shown in the log extract:
