I don't know about any needed changes to QEMU. All my QEMU patches are in 
the latest release already and I have only one further patch to use USB 
keyboard in mac99 after the driver is taken in OpenBIOS and reaches QEMU 
(until then it should still work with ADB on 32bit version and 64bit 
already uses USB).

There are some more pending patches for OpenBIOS though. After handling 
the USB driver can you look at those too please? These are:

(This depends on PCI_COMMAND_BUS_MASTER added by the USB driver.)
