OK, being a bit clever helped a lot.

https://xanclic.moe/convert-xva.rb -- does this work?
(It seems to works on the two example images I found...)

An example is in the code, you use it like this:

$ ./convert-xva.rb ~/Downloads/stats-appliance-2.36.020502.xva

Ref:73
$ ./convert-xva.rb ~/Downloads/stats-appliance-2.36.020502.xva Ref:73 \
                   -O qcow2 -p out.qcow2
    (100.00/100%)
$ ./qemu-img info out.qcow2
image: out.qcow2
file format: qcow2
virtual size: 80G (85916123136 bytes)
disk size: 4.0G
cluster_size: 65536
Format specific information:
    compat: 1.1
    lazy refcounts: false
    refcount bits: 16
    corrupt: false
