This is not a distinction that our build/configure system
currently makes. We have three categories:
 * user-mode emulator binaries
 * system-mode emulator binaries
 * tools

where essentially a "tool" is "any binary we build that isn't
a QEMU binary proper".

If virtiofsd is genuinely not related to QEMU at all, what is
it doing in our source tree ?
