thanks a lot ! Does this fix all the libvirt proper platform issues

Yes it fixes them as far as they are currently known to me.
As I wrote before I had already a temporary workaround in the kernel, so
the libvirt on xenppc status I posted a few mails before is valid for
the patched libvirt&kernel scenario.
Christian, I don't remember seeing your kernel patch; could you repost
it?
It was here on xenppc list one minute after the patch to libvirt on this
list ;-)

If we are munging something in the kernel because userspace calls us
with improper parameters, I think it goes without saying that we should
fix userspace...
The mugging was the temporary workaround I posted on xenppc last week
which allowed me to continue libvirt testing until the libvirt patch
(this thread) is finished and applied.
The last patch on xenppc (two links above) now replaces the mugging code
with sanity check to get a useful info in the case an old libvirt code
level (or something else) issues a corrupted address.
