[Bug 457092] [NEW] starting a VM with an SDL display hangs virtmanager and virsh

[PascalCavy]

Public bug reported:

setup a VM with virtmanager then ran it OK (using vnc)
stop the VM
remove the display in the VM config
add an SDL display to the config
start the VM

==> virtmanager hangs
==> virsh connects but hangs
==> libvirt takes 100% cpu
