qemu built from the branch listed above.

Testing with a shell script right now, see below.  First argument is the
mode.  "vgpu-gtk" works fine.  "vgpu-spice-remote" works too, even
remotely, but it's not very efficient (grabs display data via opengl
ReadPixels, then sends it over classic spice protocol).

For the latter I have a libvirt snippet too, which has to jump through a
few loops due to libvirt not having support for vgou display yet, with
the most annonying issue being that libvirt insists adding a emulated
vga to the guest if you configure spice.

HTH,
  Gerd
