My rough guess would be that the process we forked off for qemu has
security confinment applied (apparmor and unix permissions changed in
case of ubuntu) and ld.so is thus unable to open the libraries you want
it to preload.

For any other resource libvirt configures the confinment such as that
the process has access, but in this case this is out of our scope and
you have to make sure that the libs are accessible yourself.
