Trying to install a virtual OpenBSD on OpenBSD 4.6 on amd64, I did:
# env ETHER=em0 qemu -net nic,model=rtl8139 -net tap -m 32 -monitor

-cdrom cd46.iso -boot d
as described in
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/ports/emulators/qemu/files/README.OpenBSD?rev=1.5;content-type=text%2Fx-cvsweb-markup
It does start the install, everything, but I can't seem to get any
network connection. dhcp times out. I restarted, and tried the usual
qemu 10.0.2.0/24 as fixed addresses (and given in that site); but no fun.
Restarted again and set some addresses of the network in which the
host runs, 192.168.1.0/24. At least, I could ping the (real) gateway
of the host, and even an outside server holding the installation
files. Strange enough, though, the ftp to get the .tgz closes
immediately with some 'connection refused', though I can ping it from
the guest-to-be installed, as well as ftp to it from the host.
I used qemu on Knoppix before, and it always offered dhcp out of the box.
Where is my mistake?

You're not mistaking, Realtek is. Stay away from them, virtual or not,
and try the other NICs qemu has to offer. It will work.
