I've investigated a little more and it appears this is onyl a problem when using the legacy mode of setting up NICs using -net nic,... When using -device this does not appear to be triggered. There is a bug in libvirt though, which means even though your QEMU 0.12 supports -device we're only using that at boot time. I forgot to port hotplug of NICs to use device_add.
