I rebuilt the 3.4.1 kernel in the guest from scratch and retried my
experiments and measured
the boot times...
a) Host : RHEL6.3 RC1 + qemu-kvm (that came with it)& Guest :
RHEL6.3 RC1: ~1 min
b) Host :3.4.1 + qemu-kvm.git& Guest : RHEL6.3RC1 - ~1 min
c) Host :3.4.1 + qemu-kvm.git& Guest : 3.4.1 - ~10 mins
d) Host :3.4.1 + qemu.git& Guest : RHEL6.3 RC1 - ~1 min
e) Host :3.4.1 + qemu.git& Guest : 3.4.1 - ~14 mins
In both the case (c)& (e) had quite a few warning/error messages
from udevd.
FYI..

PS: Haven't had the time to do any further analysis...as the
machine is being used for
other experiments...
Next time you get the machine can you try running (b) but adding
-hypervisor to your -cpu config.
I tried that and didn't make any difference...i.e. the RHEL6.3 RC1 guest
booted in about ~1 min.
