It looks from the qemu docs (which mostly use linux in their examples)
like I have to set up a bridge or use tuntap.  Networking is generally
handled by the host system which in my case is OpenBSD.

ifconfig(8) mentions that it is possible to create a bridge device or a
tun device.  I've looked at a great number of pages regarding TUN/TAP and
bridges and would like to find out how to use it to create the situation
described below:

              HOST               GUEST1
         +--------------+   +--------------+
         |              |   |              |
  LAN ---+-+            |   |              |
         | | +------+   |   |              |        GUEST2

         |   +------+ | |                      |              |

         |  10.0.0.10   |                      |  10.0.0.12   |
         +--------------+                      +--------------+

(Note 1: I've been using OpenBSD for all of a few days.)

(Note 2: The -redir option in qemu, according to the qemu manual, is for
redirecting only one port on the host to only one on the guest or vice
versa rather than for making the whole quest visible.)
