KVM has a minimum CPU requirement in order to run, so there is no
reason to default to the very basic family 6, model 2 (or model 3 for
qemu32) CPU since the additional features are going to be available on
the host CPU.

What about -M 0.12?  It needs to retain the old values.

Urgh, good point. I'll come up with a fix for that. So much for a simple
patch :)
