Yeah, I can still reproduce with 0.12.4 on a fedora11 host.   Also
broken with qemu.git HEAD as of today as well.  On the f11 host kvm
modules, reverting the referenced commit doesn't help.

Steps to reproduce:

1. git checkout -b 12rc2 v0.12.0-rc2
2. ./configure --target-list=x86_64-softmmu
3. make
4. qemu-img create -f qcow2 ~/work/images/winXP-64.qcow2 20G
5. sudo ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -L pc-bios -name 'vm1' -monitor

Guest boots XP.64 installer, loads some files and then hangs at "Starting 
Windows XP"

Reverting to -rc1 and XP installs just fine.  Git bisect points to:

commit 066263f37701687c64af9d8825e3376d069ebfd4
Author: Andre Przywara <andre.przyw...@amd.com>
Date:   Mon Dec 7 11:58:02 2009 +0100

cpuid: Fix multicore setup on Intel
    

Reverting this fixes the problem.

Different kvm modules seem to affect this install as well.  Switching 
to different kvm-kmod packages:

2.6.32 modules work fine with 0.12.0-rc2, no issues at all

2.6.30 modules fail, reverting the above commit doesn't help, seems to 
be in the same boat as 2.6.28 modules

2.6.31.5 (roughly equivalent to Fedora11 modules) work on -rc1, fail on
rc2, reverting above commit fixes -rc2.
