There is a kvm/qemu init script system in the qemu-init overlay
available in layman

layman -a qemu-init

emerge app-emulation/qemu-init-scripts

It can handle most kvm/qemu setups.

It is the combined work of 2 active gentoo devs "Diego Petteno" who
created the main gentoo tinderbox, and Brian Harring.

  And does not work "poorly" and in my opinion works much better, easier
than libvirt, which I never did get working before getting a copy of
Brian's init script.
