 On the QEMU side, assuming you don't care about guest OS dating back
 from 1995, Cirrus should never be used under any circumstance [1].
 Anywhere that might have used Cirrus should be switched to use VGA. So
 if v2v does have any Cirrus related usage, I'd recommend to swap that
 out as a priority. 
Yup, that's what we're doing.
