I am able to reproduce this on debian x86_64. A simple test as below
kvm run -sda will result in segfault. I am find the option array
corrupt. Not yet sure why the patch would make a difference. Here
is the gdb dump of the structure
====Not working dump====
(gdb) p *(opts)
$5 = {type = OPTION_GROUP, short_name = 0, long_name = 0x0, value = 0x0, argh = 0x0, help = 0x40f2b0 "Basic options:", flags = 0,
callback = 0, defval = 38654705664}
(gdb) p *(opts+1)
$6 = {type = 99, short_name = 4256447, long_name = 0x61551800000000 <Address 0x61551800000000 out of bounds>, value = 0x0,
