So now we always install qemu-system-x86-64 even on i686 box? I
noticed this when I installed from git repo today, and it really
confuses.

If so, all the old configuration must be modified to use
qemu-system-x86_64 rather than qemu like before. How about making a
soft-link that points qemu to qemu-system-x86_64?
