That's just the most convenient way with the way the config file
loading is structured. The previous patch of John's had the
probing down in this part of the code in the else {} clause
here. The trouble with that is that if there is no config file
on disk at all, it'll never be run. Moving it to the top
ensures its always got a sensible default.

That's an oversight - should have conditionalized the caller, though
I wouldn't be surprisd if QEMU driver is already broken on non-UNIX
since I don't think anyone's ever really tested it. Not that I ever
really expect people to use Windows for the QEMU driver itself
