You need to contact your distribution manufacturer and ask them to enable it. Or build libvirt on your own. However, as I am writing these lines I realized two things: 1) there's no API to query loaded drivers/storage backends. 2) storage backends are static. While we have libvirt drivers in separate modules (.so files) and load them at start up, it's not the same story with storage driver backends. These are hardcoded into the storage driver. Might be worth it to have them dynamically loadable too.
