This means that neither in-guest suspend/resume nor
qemu-kvm migrate-to-file (which fails for a different
reason I'm trying to debug now) works.  Which is very
unfortunate.

Lovelylovely.

It does not work with any version of windows I tried, too
(which is winXP, win7 32 and win7 64bits).  Windows enters
an endless loop with a black screen during suspend (eating
100% CPU time).

What's wrong/broken in linux?  Can it be fixed?

Thanks,
