I'm using multiple macvtaps on eth0.. and you're right I mixed up -machine and -cpu.. my mistake. I recently filed about broken APCI showing up in dmesg and that was addressed and patched.(there's also pretty much no documentation about using macvtaps with kvm, and so I have to use the command-line.. the GUIs don't yet support it)

a tip here I can share for anyone is you don't need libvirt at all, but just unixterm/vdeterm or even just cat&&socat to access a unix monitoring socket for kvm console commands. the faq at the kvm site is actually incorrect about needing libvirt.
( "How do I use KVM on a headless machine (without a local GUI?)
Install a management tool such as virt-manager on a remote machine." )

I'll be forwarding this tip to the kvm mailing list to have that faq updated..

thanks and sorry for this incorrect bugreport..
