I have a doubt that someone is using rhel5 machine types on thel6 hosts. The bios is different anyway and some of the devices. Specifically, there is not virtio-serial device on rhel5 at all so it can't expect to work. You can remove -M rhel5 from the rhel6 tests, at least until we get requests for that. Another issue is the pci slots, you need to manually specify all of them to match the rhel5 slots. When you run w/ libvirt it does it automatically when -M rhel5 is added.
