While it's not especially important, I don't understand why you need
to get the os_major_version field from the root node.  It *should* be
copied into the os node, even on Windows.  See:

http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=blob;f=perl/lib/Sys/Guestfs/Lib.pm;h=128f7c9fa26b39d71f07544172e42b1d95171538;hb=HEAD#l1224

Maybe this doesn't happen for some reason for Windows guests.  If so,
please let me know.

Anyway, this patch fixes a serious bug in RHEV-M importing, so ACK.

Rich.
