We are also using qemu 1.2 prerelease in Fedora 18 and we're
not seeing this problem.  All of the tests (including extra-tests)
run perfectly.

More precisely, we are using qemu git 3e430569 and I checked
that it includes the commit above.  We also apply other patches
to qemu, but none of them seem relevant:

http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/qemu.git/tree/?h=f18

The only thing I can suggest is trying qemu from git.  I've
not tried that for a while.
