I've put an updated version of this and the follow up patch to reconnect to running vms at: http://honk.sigxcpu.org/projects/libvirt/daemon-restart/0001-daemonize-qemu-processes.patch http://honk.sigxcpu.org/projects/libvirt/daemon-restart/0002-read-saved-vm-status-on-libvirtd-startup.patch Just in case somebody else wants to try them.
