No, you're not running an old version of qemu-kvm in CentOS. Like most other packages, Red Hat has selected an (old and stable) version as the baseline version and then backported bugfixes and new features from newer versions of the package, to fulfill the needs of their enterprise customers. kvm-83 in CentOS is NOT equal to upstream kvm-83. That said, as you've probably already read in the docs, KVM is a "technology preview" in RHEL 5.x...6.0 will be the first version with official/stable KVM support by Red Hat.

Hi Kenni,
This is my setup:
$ cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5.5 (Final)
$ uname -r -m 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5 i686
$ rpm -qa *kvm* kvm-36-1 kmod-kvm-36-3
Not even close to 83. :-(
