That's what I do. Just as a warning, if you're using the libvirt packages from Debian unstable, make sure you also install linux-libc-dev from unstable before building qemu-kvm. Otherwise, virtio networking will fail. The reason is that qemu-kvm will be built against the Lenny linux-libc-dev which does not have IFF_VNET_HDR, while the libvirt was built against a newer linux-libc-dev that did define IFF_VNET_HDR. If they don't agree then things break.
Isn't that a libvirt bug? libvirt shouldn't assume qemu supports IFF_VNET_HDR just because it sees it.
