As far as I know, the BIOS used by QEmu is completely hidden from
libvirt (this can actually be a problem as some corner cases of virtio
boot support are dependant on the seabios version), so unfortunately
there is nothing which can be done at the libvirt level I think,
virtio and seabios are exactly the reason for my question:) I'll just copy
over the new bios, it will work fine.
