Is this issue still reproducible with the latest version of QEMU, or
could we close this issue nowadays?

Title:
OpenSolaris guest fails to see the Solaris partitions of a physical
disk in qemu-kvm-9999 (GIT)
Status in QEMU:
Incomplete
Bug description:
# qemu-kvm --version
QEMU emulator version 0.13.50 (qemu-kvm-devel), Copyright (c) 2003-2008
Fabrice Bellard
The following disk is presented to guest as IDE disk with /dev/sdd as
path.
# fdisk -l /dev/sdd
Disk /dev/sdd: 750.2 GB, 750156374016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 91201 cylinders, total 1465149168 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x7f3a03aa

The prtvtoc output is attached from both VirtualBox and Qemu-KVM. As
can be seen in the screenshots, a valid Solaris partition table (which
is inside the /dev/sdd3, marked 'bf' in Linux fdisk output) is not
seen in Qemu but seen in Virtualbox.
This makes the guest unbootable in Qemu because the root FS is not
found but its bootable in Virtualbox.
