Alas, that is just a paste error in the email.  Correction:

#!/bin/sh

virt-install -n nwtest --description 'Test host' -r 512 -vcpus 1 \
	--os-type=linux --os-variant=debiansqueeze \
	--disk /srv/virtual/nwtest,device=disk,bus=virtio,size=3 \
	--network bridge=br0,model=virtio \
	--nographics \
	--autostart \
	-l http://ftp.ca.debian.org/debian/dists/squeeze/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/ \
	-x "console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8"
