Actually I tried to do that before posting v3, following the
instructions in "docs/devel/testing.rst":

  cd $QEMU_SRC/tests/vm
  ./openbsd --build-image --image /mnt/data/tmp/openbsd.img
  ./openbsd --debug --image /mnt/data/tmp/openbsd.img \
    --build-qemu $QEMU_SRC

The first "openbsd" invocation succeeded, but the second failed, with a
complaint about some (cross?)compiler missing.

Anyway I'll now retry with the make command you specify above.

Aha! So first I guess I should run at least configure, for setting up an
out-of-tree build, and then try the "make" command.

Thanks, I'll report back.
