If market share starts dropping, we can scale back support in qemu. Providing less than optimal performance is a lot better than starting up with no networking. In any case optimal performance requires a non-default selection (virtio).Well if e1000 gives 95% of the virtio performance, and 8139 gives 50%, then I know which I will be using. Personally I don't care which one is default, since I will use e1000 with bridging anyhow.
if (0) is usually optimized away by the compiler.The default only matters to unmanaged systems. I think we should aim first for working, and later for performance.
