We don't ship QEMU or KVM in RHEL yet, so there's nothing to fix in RHEL for QEMU/KVM, and I don't believe Xen suffers from it, since it uses a different way of handling MMIO memory registration.
Whereever that CentOS user got their qemu & kvm RPMs from, they weren't a standard part of RHEL & those versions are absolutely ancient too.
You're right, I missed that they're in the CentOS Extras repositories and not the base repository that is dervied from RHEL. They do have a newer version of kvm in their testing repository; I might give that a try. I use a customized Fedora kernel in the guest VMs, so in order to use Xen I'd have to get it built as a domU kernel. Thanks, David
