From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paul...@linux.vnet.ibm.com> A system misconfiguration that prevents qemu from running at all (for example, a missing dynamically linked library) will keep the console.log file from the previous run. This can fool the developer into thinking that this failed run actually completed correctly. This commit therefore overwrites the console.log file just before launching qemu.
