vgabios-0.6b-3.7.el6
sgabios-bin-0-0.3.20110621svn.el6

Command line is like this:
  /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -name vm12 -S -M rhel6.3.0 -enable-kvm -m 1024 -smp 
2,sockets=2,cores=1,threads=1 -uuid 539b7cdb-7afc-4237-bdbc-8ddbdf5e0204 
-nographic -nodefconfig -nodefaults -chardev 
socket,id=charmonitor,path=/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/vm12.monitor,server,nowait 
-mon chardev=charmonitor,id=monitor,mode=control -rtc base=utc -no-shutdown 
-device piix3-usb-uhci,id=usb,bus=pci.0,addr=0x1.0x2 -drive 
file=/dev/kvmvg/vm12,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk0,format=raw,cache=none,aio=native
 -device 
virtio-blk-pci,scsi=off,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4,drive=drive-virtio-disk0,id=virtio-disk0,bootindex=1
 -chardev pty,id=charserial0 -device isa-serial,chardev=charserial0,id=serial0 
-device virtio-balloon-pci,id=balloon0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3

When I edit VM definition so that qemu-kvm is invoked without '-nographic',
the guest boots fine.
