Whoops. I had a local image that was different (must have been laying
around from long ago, the wget saved to .1). It does still work though.
$ md5sum cirros-0.3.0-x86_64-disk.img
50bdc35edb03a38d91b1b071afb20a3c cirros-0.3.0-x86_64-disk.img
$ qemu-img info cirros-0.3.0-x86_64-disk.img
image: cirros-0.3.0-x86_64-disk.img
file format: qcow2
virtual size: 39M (41126400 bytes)
disk size: 9.3M
cluster_size: 65536
The same nbd -c... mount work as shown.
