Hi Daniel,
Charles Duffy (thanks Charles !) told me how to fix libvirt for using
the
new "-incoming" API - yust replace "stdio" with "exec:cat" ..
Works like a charm, tested with FC9, libvirt.0.5.1-2 and KVM-83
Here's the patch for libvirt:
diff -uNr libvirt-0.5.1/src/qemu_driver.c
libvirt-0.5.1-migrate-exec-patch/src/qemu_driver.c
--- libvirt-0.5.1/src/qemu_driver.c 2009-01-18 11:07:57.000000000
