Hi, first of all thanks for testing this.  I'm going to put forward an
updated/finalized patch but it won't be til next week.

Good question.  When we've talked about adding support for the
watchdog in libvirt, I've only been thinking about configuring it, not
about how to find out when it fires.  This is a bit tricky because we
have to both get qemu to generate an event (eg. a monitor message),
and then get libvirt to handle that event.

Thus I'll throw this open to libvir-list to see if anyone has
an idea how to implement that ...
