	Score! :)

	How about something like:

  server->qemuCmdFlags & QEMUD_CMD_VNC_PORT_NEEDS_COLON ? ":%d" : "%d"

	That way we could keep the actual logic around what version does what
in qemudExtractVersion()

	(Ditto for QEMUD_CMD_HAS_KQEMU ...)

	Close the pipes here

	Handle EINTR here ... it's quite a likely place to hit it, I guess
(e.g. SIGCHLD?)

	Need a "\n"

	Don't know that we actually want to fail under both these
circumstances.

	The driver seems to be a strange place to put this function.

	Note, this means we don't have support for networks if something's
wrong with qemu ... think we should just try and locate the binary when
starting domains and return an error if it fails.
