I actually think it is a very useful debugging message as is,
because the command-line arguments are often all we need to
reproduce a QEMU crash.
That said, sys.stderr.write doesn't belong to the QEMUMachine
code, as callers should decide if/when/how/where to print
information about a QEMU crash.
I think a QEMUCrashed exception class would be the best way to
report that to callers. Including the full QEMU command-line on
the exception __str__ method would make it helpful when debugging
crashes: existing code that doesn't catch launch() exceptions
will crash with a more helpful stack trace, and code that already
catches exceptions is probably going to print exception info
somewhere.
