These two paragraphs belong better as the commit message.

This is a bit long; I trimmed it in length so that 'git shortlog -30'
doesn't wrap so badly:
qemu: move -name arg to be 1st in "ps x" output

Once you get down to no args, it's more efficient to do:
virCommandNew(emulator);
And one BIIIIG problem - making this change means that 'make check'
fails, unless you update ALL of the tests to match. But I agree with
the concept, so I was okay making the change (sed scripting to the
rescue, thankfully).
ACK with those modifications, so I will push once I complete the
testsuite conversion. I will also be adding you to AUTHORS; let me know
if you prefer a different spelling than what you used to make your commit.
