Brain fart, self-NACK. This obviously means that 'qemu-img convert' still can't leave zeros in the source file unwritten in the destination, otherwise we're corrupting data. qemu would still read them correctly, but other implementations might not. We'd have to write the BAT for dynamic images with PAYLOAD_BLOCK_ZERO for all clusters before we can make this change. Jeff, do you want to fix this? Kevin
