No, not one boolean option. ÂEither one option that takes a string
argument, or one option that can be used multiple times to provide
successive arguments to qemu's configure.

The idea is that we won't have to update this again when the next qemu
configure option comes up (or when someone wants to supply an option
to qemu's configure that we hadn't anticipated they would want to
adjust).

Ian.

Now I understand, great idea.

Seems what I did on first version of this patch:
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2012-03/msg02171.html

But I not remember or found because was changed :(
