Oh no, this commit is clearly wrong.

The commit as made the python library link against 'libvirt_util.la'
directly.  The libvirt_util.la library is *already* part of libvirt.so
so this change resulted in 2 copies of libvirt-util.la being linked
in which causes unpredictable results with global variables / initializers

This part of the change should be reverted. Anything that the python
code needs from libvirt_util.la, should be added to src/libvirt_private.syms
if it is not already there.
