That's a mistake as I don't think that was Avi/Marcelo's intention.

   So I can't use the sources you
(the qemu-kvm team anyway) ship because there's no shipped
sources, so I have to try to be clever and find a way to
deal with the issue.

But now when you mentioned it and I _finally_ found the
bios source in qemu-0.12.3, maybe I'll be even more
clever and will patch qemu-kvm with bits missing in it
from qemu-0.12.3.  Ugly but at least doable.

The qemu-kvm tarball was generated incorrectly. To regenerate it correctly, you would do:

$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/qemu-kvm.git qemu-kvm-0.12.3.1
$ cd qemu-kvm-0.12.3.1
$ git submodule update --init
$ rm -rf .git roms/seabios/.git roms/vgabios/.git
$ echo '0.12.3.1' > VERSION

Ideally, Avi/Marcelo will do a 0.12.3.1 to fix this.

Anthony Liguori
