I previously changed the command line syntax to use -device for starting guests. The key reason for this was to allow unique names and PCI addresses to be assigned to all devices. I forgot todo the same for hotplug :-( This series is not yet complete, but it goes some of the way towards fixing the hotplug code to use 'device_add' for creating devices. The main remaining problem is that I'm nt assigning aliases to devices, to they all get the name of '(null)'. Obviously I'll fix that before submitting again...
