some more info:
myarch ~: uname -a
Linux myarch 2.6.34-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Jul 5 22:12:11 CEST 2010 x86_64
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P8700 @ 2.53GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
myarch ~: qemu-kvm --version

I also fetched the latest qemu-kvm from git repo and compiled it with simple
./configure&make
The compiled version behaved similarly
I also tried different terminal emulators: gnome-terminal and xterm - same thing
I also tried real terminal (i.e. booted without X) - same thing
Then I thought maybe the issue is my hardware (if its possible) and
booted into Ubuntu on the same machine, installed KVM for Ubuntu and it
worked there.
