Hello again,

Thank you all very much for your answers.
Actually I use qemu with GDB as described here (-s -S, etc.), I've
just posted the simplest command that I use to trigger the bug.
So regarding your answers I would like to ask for some more clarification:
* Has anyone encountered/reproduce this problem on your ARM host?
* Any suggestion where to look in the KVM source for these kind of problems?
* Maybe there is some unstable feature that I could disable in
host/guest to narrow this issue?

Thanks again for all your help!

Best regards
zbb
