I'm currently pulling hair while trying to migrate a 64-bit x86 guest in kvm mode (via exec+snapshot file, but without block migration and any of my patches). The target crashes after taking over. Are you aware of any 64-bit migration issues related to kvm (as you said there are more bugs)? 32 bit works fine here.
