Hi Dan,

That's definitely be a useful feature.  Some comments...

Is this just to ensure portability or does it change the behavior?

I think both of these retry loops could be replaced with safewrite
from util.c:

  if (safewrite(vm->logfile, buf, strlen(buf)) != strlen(buf))
     qemudLog(...)

Commands should be terminated with "\r", otherwise the terminal layer
replaces "\n" -> "\r\n", and bugs in earlier qemu means it would
execute the command twice.  Recent qemu will still print the "(qemu) "
prompt twice in this case, which might confuse qemudMonitorCommand
into thinking that a subsequent command is finished before it's even
started.

Unless the O_NOCTTY somehow fixes that?
