Hey all!

Since recently patching our hosts, I´ve been having trouble running FreeBSD guests with more than one virtual core or socket. I have managed take a screenshot of how it looks like when it panics when booting kernel, right after ACPI:

I´ve tried this with similar results using 8.2-RELEASE, 8.3-RELEASE, 9.0-RELEASE and 9-STABLE.

If I edit the guest to have only one virtual core or socket, it boots up without issue.

Since noticing this, I´ve tried updating the packages one more time, thinking maybe it had already been fixed but no, it remains. These are the package versions I´m using:
# rpm -qa | egrep '(kernel|libvirt|qemu|vdsm|seabios)' | sort -d
ipxe-roms-qemu-20120328-1.gitaac9718.fc17.noarch

vdsm-python-4.10.0-10.fc17.x86_64
vdsm-xmlrpc-4.10.0-10.fc17.noarch

Do you have any insights as to what the problem might be?
