Running on on Intel i7 6 cores, allocated one core (KVM reports 2
because two threads) with 4GB RAM. Skylake-Client-IBRS. Running default
networking, so NAT.

x86_64, /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64, Q35, BIOS, default "hardware".

Was more interested in an answer to the question "Is there any way to
debug this?"

Thanks, K.

PS: Rebooted the host and the guest hasn't died since...
