I've even further narrowed it down to the presents or lack of '-vga cirrus'. If you add '-vga cirrus' to the above command line, the guest will boot successfully.
Confirmed: Adding -vga cirrus to the command line cures it too.
That's a strange one :-)
vga sticks out a bit because it's one of the few places where we treat device memory as ram as a performance optimization.
The only time vga has been touched in between v0.15 and v1.0 was during the introduction of the memory API.
It's this commit:

seabios: update to masterThis looks like the same issue reported at:
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2011-10/msg00029.html
The SeaBIOS fix for this was in rel-1.6.3.1 - but that didn't make QEmu 1.0. Does the problem go away if you upgrade to the newer SeaBIOS version?
Er, I can't actually build SeaBIOS anymore...
The version of LD on this system does not properly handle alignments. As a result, this project can not be built.
The problem may be the result of this LD bug report: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12726
Please update to a working version of binutils and retry. Makefile:75: *** "Please upgrade GCC and/or binutils". Stop.
Let me find a box with a newer binutils...
