Yes I agree, and also check qemu_loglevel instead of log_flags for
the same reason (and to match the comment just above).

Yeah... if the main thread happens to call qemu_log(), it then opens
a file with the same name indeed. Thanks for catching that !

2) and 3) can certainly be preparatory work but I think 1)
should be squashed in my patch. Because of the !per_thread
check in need_to_open_file, the existing code in
qemu_set_log_internal() doesn't even open the global file
and qemu_log_trylock() would always return NULL for the
main thread.
Thanks for the quick answer and suggestions !
