OK, that's good to know.

Brians-MacBook-Air:~ $ LIBVIRT_LOG_FILTERS=1:vbox virsh -c vbox:///session
18:11:05.910: -1: info : libvirt version: 0.9.6
18:11:05.910: -1: debug : tryLoadOne:163 : Found VBoxXPCOMC.dylib in '/Applications/VirtualBox.app/Contents/MacOS'

Looks like libvirt doesn't grok this version of VirtualBox. The version of
libvirt which Homebrew built was:

  homepage 'http://www.libvirt.org'
  url 'ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/libvirt-0.9.6.tar.gz'
  sha256 'ce29b1cd3067b224aa834fec2a93d7613c0e72bc035760ad536a2142430bc02b'

This seems to be latest stable version - should I try 0.9.7rc2?

Aha: 7 days ago...
