Hmm, you converted TAB to space.

Also, since gnulib has some directly-supplied headers (srcdir) and some
generated headers (builddir), we really should be using both locations
so as not to break VPATH.

I'm not sure I like this.  Rather than pulling in just one or two source
files, we should probably instead figure out how to directly link
against the libvirt_util library and have all of the functions
available.  This would also make it possible to use VIR_FREE and friends
(at which point, we should disable the syntax-check exceptions currently
in effect on the python files).

I think I will do a preliminary patch, which does _just_ the makefile
work to pull in the use of libvirt_util, then we can rebase this patch
on top of that one.  I know Alex Jia was also complaining about the
inability to use normal libvirt conventions, because the Makefile wasn't
yet set up for it, so this will be a good move overall.

Is th is type correct, or can it be any python dictionary type that maps
valid numa tunable parameter names to values?

The return type should be a python object - a dictionary on success,
PyNone on failure where libvirt populated an error message, or NULL on a
python exception.

Hmm, the rest of our code sets up INCLUDES so that we can use just
"virtypedparam.h" instead of "util/virtypedparam.h"; another thing for
me to do in pulling out the infrastructure into a preliminary patch.

If we return NULL, we should ensure that there is a valid python
exception object ready for the caller to access.  I'm thinking it might
be better to mark this function with ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL(1) to avoid
worrying about whether the caller has properly generated a python
exception before passing us NULL.

     Hi Eric

         I saw your comments about the nonnull attribute usage as follows
         http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17308
         I am not clear about it is still helpful to use it here?
