Built fine on most Debian architectures:

	https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=libvirt&suite=experimental

The built failure on amd64 is due to virnetsockettest failing with:

 5) Socket UNIX Accept... libvir: RPC error : Path /build/buildd-libvirt_0.9.7~rc1-1-amd64-EGXZTE/libvirt-0.9.7~rc1/debian/build/tests/virnetsockettest-test.sock too long for unix socket: Cannot allocate memory

since the socket path doesn't fit in UNIX_PATH_MAX. Since exceeding the
path shouldn't't be fatal I'm using the attached patch.
Cheers,
