Merging either implementation and abstracting it would risk regressions 
in the other.
How about merging both, with the ABIs (command line and qmp) tagged as 
experimental, and then doing a merge in the same style as 
i386+x86_64->x86 or the two kvm implementations in qemu?  We can pick 
one implementation as the merge target and port fixes from the other.
