Sorry for the delay.

I grabbed libvirt-python-1.2.15-1.el6.x86_64.rpm from:
http://buildlogs.centos.org/centos/6/virt/x86_64/xen/

rpm installed fine. After that virt-manager and virt-viewer installed fine too. 
virt-manager seems to start/run fine aswell. I'll play with it more now.. 

So the main issue seems to be fixed with that libvirt-python build!


Thanks a lot,
