Somewhat off topic, but does the curl driver work for you at all? Especially if you have a disk image on a remote server, but one with relatively low latency (eg. on a LAN but not localhost). We have had endless problems with it, including upstream discussions with curl people, summarised in this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=971790 Just now I tried the latest qemu from git with and without your patch and still cannot make it work, although the bugginess is now different from RHBZ#971790. I opened a new bug about what I'm seeing today (https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1269606).
