I think I was able to fix this crash by specifying the exact host model for the cpu argument.

1. Determine the CPU type of the host machine.

$ sysctl -a | grep machdep.cpu.brand_string
machdep.cpu.brand_string: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4690 CPU @ 3.50GHz

2. Find the matching CPU model supported by QEMU.

$ qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu help

This CPU corresponds to "x86 Haswell-v4" in this instance.

3. Substitute the CPU model in the QEMU command.

$ qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu Haswell-v4 ...
