FYI. Maybe my original guess is right...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PCI controllers have an optional|model|attribute with possible
values|pci-root|,|pcie-root|,|pci-bridge|, or|dmi-to-pci-bridge|. The
root controllers (|pci-root|and|pcie-root|) have an
optional|pcihole64|element specifying how big (in kilobytes, or in the
unit specified by|pcihole64|'s|unit|attribute) the 64-bit PCI hole
should be. Some guests (like Windows XP or Windows Server 2003) might
crash when QEMU and Seabios are recent enough to support 64-bit PCI
holes, unless this is disabled (set to 0).Since 1.1.2 (QEMU only)

I am sorry it may not be caused by the version of qemu-kvm. But I
still have not found the real reason. If you know it please let me know.
