I think any damage is now done with regards to keeping tools/ioemu in sync with qemu, so we may as well take this patch.

At some point there will be a big restructuring of the device model code (moving out of dom0) and rebasing to qemu then is probably a good plan. If some of the changes we've made could have been pushed up to qemu that would have been good -- perhaps we can enforce something like that after a rebase.
