The "-machine" options for accelerators are legacy, the "-accel" options

This patch switch the option "-machine accel=xxx" to "-accel xxx" when
specifying accelerator type once libvirt build QEMU command line.
This is going to break use of the /usr/bin/qemu-kvm wrapper on
Fedora because QEMU refuses to allow -accel combined with -machine

$ /usr/bin/qemu-kvm -accel tc
qemu-system-x86_64: The -accel and "-machine accel=" options are incompatible

That script is useless, a symlink will do ever since QEMU 4.0. Fedora can and should get rid of it, I'll take a look.

Is there any other distro that does the same? Libvirt cannot use newer KVM features with "-machine accel".
