Thanks for reporting this bug. The vvfat block driver is not actively
maintained, but you can help us track down this bug:
Since it used to work in QEMU 1.4.1 you could use git-bisect(1) to
identify the commit that broke vvfat.
http://git-scm.com/book/en/Git-Tools-Debugging-with-Git#Binary-Search
https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-bisect.html
http://code-worrier.com/blog/git-bisect-basics/
Something along the lines of:
$ git clone git://git.qemu.org/qemu.git
$ cd qemu
$ git bisect start
$ git bisect bad master
$ git bisect good v1.4.1
Then build from source and test at each bisect step:
$ ./configure --target-list=x86_64-softmmu && make
$ qemu -drive file=fat:floppy:...
If it fails:
$ git bisect bad
If it succeeds:
$ git bisect good
At the end of the process it will tell you which commit broke vvfat.
