Yeah, libvirt 1.3.5 is fine.

The problem here is that getting this tested in OSX has some pita
niggles that needing working around, and it's been a fair while since
I last needed to do them.  eg out of practise :)

In this instance, because this is intended for use in Homebrew
(an OSX packaging system) I need to test the patch with the already
generated libvirt-2.0.0.xz archive, not the latest git master.

Cue unpacking, applying patch, repacking, etc.

I'm on it now. ;)

Sure.  Lets see if my 2nd attempt at regenerating patched archive
file work first... :)
