Public bug reported:

With Qemu 2.5.50 (compiled from git some time ago) I can boot Windows 7 x64 installation DVD as follows:
~/code/qemu-v2/bin/slic-v2/native/x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 \
    -machine type=pc,accel=kvm \
    -enable-kvm \
    -cpu host \
    -m 2048 \
    -vga cirrus \
    -boot d \
    -drive if=pflash,file=/vms/ovmf_x64_firstrun.bin,format=raw \
    -cdrom /vms/win7_sp1.iso \
    -monitor stdio

This bug suggests different vga options
https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1581936. Here's the behaviours I'm
getting with 2.6.0:

std - "Starting Windows" with wavering flag hangs indefinitely
cirrus - at "Starting Windows" wasps of light freeze before assembling into a flag
qxl - "Starting Windows" with wavering flag hangs indefinitely
virtio - "Starting Windows" with wavering flag hangs indefinitely
