Based on the understanding of the situation that I've gained through
your very detailed explanations (thanks!), I would say that by doing
so we'd only be papering over the issue: when actually starting
guests on macOS, we'd still attempt to store the original owner in
xattrs and fail, right? So I think on macOS we need to always behave
as if remember_owner had been set to 0 in qemu.conf.
