I've been thinking about this the last few hours. The end-game of making
the network driver available separately is to have all of the
functionality for setting up network interfaces be in the network
driver, including creation of tap devices and attaching them to bridges,
adding iptables rules, setting QoS. Once this is done, it will no longer
be possible to build with --without-network and have a functionally
useful libvirtd. Either we will have to redefine what
"--without-network" means (so that it just applies to the "virtual
networks" part of the network driver), or remove that option.
