I have to say I would dearly love to split up our header file into
a number of pieces, since it is really a huge mess as it is. I'd
like to have

    libvirt/virerror.h
    libvirt/virmisc.h
    libvirt/virconnect.h
    libvirt/virdomain.h
    libvirt/virnetwork.h
    libvirt/virnodedev.h
    libvirt/virinterface.h
    libvirt/..etc...

In keeping with the way GTK works, applications would *not* include
the individual header files directly - they'd simply continue to
use libvirt.h as now, which would in turn #include all the individual
pieces.
