QEMU itself actually hangs in my tests (the main loop is waiting
to lock the iothread but it never does; the cpu thread seems to
be stuck trying to do a bdrv_aio_cancel for the scsi device model).
This should never happen, regardless of what the guest does...

I suspect that if you configure on linux with --with-coroutine=sigaltstack
you might then find they both behave the same (MacOSX can't do the
ucontext coroutines we default to on linux). OTOH it might also
involve some of MacOSX's slightly different signal behaviour.

I'll continue to prod, though past experience is that MacOSX
gdb is weirdly broken and things behave differently when run
under it, which doesn't help :-(
