I just updated, and it does fail to link on OSX:

  LINK  i386-softmmu/qemu
Undefined symbols:
  "_kvm_set_ioeventfd_mmio_long", referenced from:
      _ivshmem_read in ivshmem.o
      _ivshmem_read in ivshmem.o
      _ivshmem_mmio_map in ivshmem.o
ld: symbol(s) not found
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [qemu] Error 1
make: *** [subdir-i386-softmmu] Error 2

Please don't remove. :) Hints for patches are welcome.

darwin-user is another matter, it was broken ever since I use QEMU and  
my half-hearted attempts to fix were unsuccessful.
