Package: qemu-system
Version: 0.12.4+dfsg-3
Severity: normal
File: qemu.1

>From the man page:

    -chardev stdio ,id=id
           Connect to standard input and standard output of the qemu
process.  stdio does not take any options. stdio is not available on
Windows hosts.

This was advised when I wanted ^C working on the emulated system:

You have to ask for the signaling to not be interpreted by QEMU. This
can be done in two ways:
- using the -nographic option (which also disable the display)
- creating a chardev with signaling off, and assigning it to the serial
  port: -chardev stdio,signal=off,id=serial0 -serial chardev:serial0


Clearly the man page is lacking. You cannot possible glean something
like that from the man page, neither option is mentioned there.
