Your guess made me curious enough to check the remote machine one last
time before I went to sleep, but unfortunately the <emulator> element is
pointing to the plain `/usr/bin/qemu-kvm`, which in turn exec()'s
`/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64`.
(I attached the nothing-special, full guest XML.)
Interesting. What is the output of 'virsh capabilities'?
More interesting still is the fact that the guest XML you shared
looks like an *active* XML, ie. one taken from a running guest...
Does that mean the guest can start even though it's using the 2.11
machine type?
