Public bug reported:
In previous versions, /usr/bin/kvm was a standalone binary that enabled
hardware-accelerated virtualization by default. In 9.10, /usr/bin/kvm
links to /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 which requres the -enable-kvm flag
to use hardware virtualization acceleration. libvirt does not supply
this flag. In libvirt 0.7.4 this appears to be fixed, release notes
include: "qemu-kvm needs -enable-kvm flag for VT optimization (Steve
Yarmie)"
