TYPE_X86_CPU differs depending on whether you build the binary that targets
64-bit guest CPUs (qemu-system-x86_64) or the binary that targets 32-bit
guest CPUs (qemu-system-i386). You cannot easily change this without
breaking migration from older QEMU versions.
What's exactly the problem that you have run into that led to this question?
FWIW, I once proposed a patch series that allows to integrate both target
types in one binary:

... however, I unfortunately failed to get the supporting attention of the
x86 maintainers, so this has never been merged.
