Partially answering myself (morning coffee hasn't quite kicked in just yet), the MinGW .spec doesn't list yajl as a BuildRequires, which means that either we're not hitting any of the code paths you mention on that platform, or we've been producing completely useless Windows builds for a while now :) -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
