The first qemu upstream commit to fail the test:
  6eefccc0bb9c34051b1e21880fc3a1c1c8686edd
  roms: update vgabios binaries
  This also switches from lgplvgabios to seavgabios.

A more recent version of the seavgabios binary fix the issue with
freebsd, so I asked for a backport in an other email.


But there is still a minor issue related to qemu 2.0, it concernes VNC.
The screen does not properly get updated (when moving a window under
Windows for example).
