This makes me wonder if the bug may not actually be in the virtio net driver.
The source for that is at
https://github.com/YanVugenfirer/kvm-guest-drivers-windows .
Something like commit 9b1b81a731f722efa8df24429649b527a17bf433 might
be relevant (assuming the git HEAD has this fixed, which I've not
tested).
