Hi folks:
We've captured a regression with floppy disk on recent qemu (and
qemu-kvm, after a code merge). We bisected it to be caused by:

Since this commit, the guest doesn't see a floppy disk attached to it
anymore, blocking kvm autotest ability to install windows guests
automatically. This is a big deal for kvm autotest (ruins our automated
regression jobs), so please take a look at it.
Can you please try again with the latest block branch? I think there is
a patch queued that will fix it.

Kevin,
The behaviour of the latest block branch is indeed different, but not
much better.
In my quick manual test, booting via a FreeDOS floppy image:
* latest master: does not seem to read the floppy at all
* latest block: reads the floppy only to the point that 'FreeDOS' is
printed in the console
All other qemu/qemu-kvm versions tested (for example 0.15.0),
successfully read and boot the same image.
CR.
