kvm used to carry this commit:

commit 4667e6ec0df770867095d8093562d93c94d96ca2
Author: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
Date:   Thu Feb 12 11:43:17 2009 +0200

    Change virtio-console to PCI_CLASS_OTHERS
    
    As a PCI_CLASS_DISPLAY_OTHER, it reduces primary display somehow on Windows XP
    (possibly Windows disables acceleration since it fails to find a driver).
    
    Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

This seems to have been dropped. Is the issue gone?
Could relevant parties speak up please?
Do we want to merge this commit into qemu.git?

It's an impossible compatibility problem now.  I have this sinking
feeling that we need to create yet another driver property.

A merge from qemu.git I would guess.
git log does not seem to show the culprit, I don't know
how to find it.

That's easy, we have a class property for this already.

It was e2478f504fff20ad (git log  -SPCI_CLASS_OTHERS master -m -p).

Exactly. qemu-kvm used to set the class to CLASS_OTHER while
the current code sets it to PCI_CLASS_COMMUNICATION_OTHER.
Do we want support for CLASS_OTHER or is it ok to drop it?

Looks like starting with qemu-kvm-0.11, qemu-kvm matches qemu.  I think
we can let the compatibility problem with qemu-kvm-0.10 remain.
