It appears to be a race condition.  When I hand-compile the precise-
updates qemu-kvm tree on quantal

        ./configure --target-list=x86_64-softmmu  && make -j3

and run

        cd x86_64-softmmu
        ./qemu-system-x86_64 -m 1024 -boot order=c,menu=on -hda 
/home/serge/x.img -usb -usbdevice disk:format=raw:/home/serge/usb-sandisk.img 
-vnc :2 -monitor stdio --enable-kvm -L /usr/share/qemu

then it does not show up in the boot menu.  But when I strace it:

        cd x86_64-softmmu
        strace -f -o/tmp/qqq ./qemu-system-x86_64 -m 1024 -boot order=c,menu=on 
-hda /home/serge/x.img -usb -usbdevice 
disk:format=raw:/home/serge/usb-sandisk.img -vnc :2 -monitor stdio --enable-kvm 
-L /usr/share/qemu

it does.
