IMHO it's not that hard to add new boards.
The tech docs at http://www.qemu.org/user-doc.html could really use some more information on this area. The "hw" directory contains both definitions of individual pieces of hardware (such as i8259.or ide.c) and motherboards that integrate lots of pieces of hardware together (pc.c or integratorcp.c). They're treated as interchangeable, both of them are initialized with a function ending in "_init", and there's no easy way to distinguish between them except by inspection. (I could easily be wrong about this, but if so I haven't found the pattern or documentation yet.)
