We care about removing qemu-kvm to null.

I suggested this: provide a configuration file (and proper guide on
how to use it on announce email) to be shipped with qemu 1.3.0.

That is:

"For compatibility with qemu-kvm 1.2.0, use

qemu-system-x86_64 -config /usr/share/qemu/qemu-kvm-1.2-compat.opt"

This would work for rtl8139-as-default, vga-ram-size differences.

And drop all command line option compatibility (which can be easily fixed 
by an administrator/end user).

Comments?
