It's likely that those unfamiliar with QEMU, especially non-developers,
won't be able to do this:

The wording requires the reader to figure out that "latest development
version of QEMU" is none of the big 6.0.0, 5.2.0, etc download links at
the top of the page but the small text "The latest development happens
on the master branch" sentence below the fold. Then they need to look
around the page to find out how to download the master branch and build
from source.

I suggest referring directly to the build instructions instead of
requiring the reader to make several connections in order to do what
we're (indirectly) asking:

  Before submitting a bug, please attempt to reproduce the problem with
  the latest qemu.git master built from source. See the "To download and
  build QEMU from git" section at https://www.qemu.org/download/#source
  for instructions.
