For the record, we can use wxWidgets in qemu even though we can not use C++ in qemu (something that I would be strongly against). http://wxc.sourceforge.net/ Requiring this as a dependency would make it easier to deal with issues such as C++ ABI compatibility by avoiding the direct use of C++. T

Aactually, the bug is in vfat not in qemu-img. qemu-img correctly uses ftruncate() which is suppose to make the file sparse if the underlying filesystem supports it, but it should fall back to adding zeros to the end of the file. On vfat you aren't able to seek past the end of a file period, so t
