Just type qemu and look at its options.  They changed since
0.7.2.  Likely you want something like

        -net socket,fd=5

Also AFAIK you don't need vde anymore since qemu can do the bridging
for you (but I haven't used it so take this with a grain of salt).

In general you want to look at what changed when you update s/w.
