Urgh, what a frickin' horrible feature to have in a config file, with
no command line override.

That said, it should be possible to fix via a regex tweak. There are
several places where we call virStorageBackendRunProgRegex in
storage_backend_logical.c. In all of those cases you need to tweak
the 'regexes' definition to add a bit of magic to optionally detect
and ignore the prefix.
