Hmm, yes, seems like libvirt should be sanitizing the target path when
the pool is defined (though virtinst could certainly do this too).

Looks like there could be arbitrary '/' in the middle of the path
though, so if you use something like os.path.abspath in your patch it
should sanitize everything appropriately.

Thank,
