Another one of those spelling battles. Depends on who you ask:
$ git grep behavior -- src tools | wc
7 78 567
$ git grep behaviour -- src tools | wc
13 91 1015
$ git grep behavior -- tools/virsh.pod | wc
2 27 157
$ git grep behaviour -- tools/virsh.pod | wc
1 11 86
but maybe we should go with the American 'behavior' (couldn't help
myself on the pun).
ACK, after fixing the nits. And I might as well submit a separate patch
for behavio[u]r, given my previous patch for initiali[sz]e.
