Sorry, haven't had any time yet, but now I could do a quick test.
Looks good so far, no more panic with a nativ kqemu.

I compiled a -current kernel from today (with your new patch), recompiled 
kqemu and also qemu.
But I can't guarantee the kernel module is used. My feeling ist that it's much 
slower than with my last tests (on that test setup I had always disabled 
all -current debuging (witness, malloc aj etc))

But it's just a "feeling", no values taken. Lack of time...

Thank you very much for your help!

best regards,
