Your diff would be smaller if you used 'git config diff.renames true',
as it would then show file renames instead of delete/create actions.
But that's only in the presentation, and not a flaw in the patch itself.

ACK and will push shortly.

This hunk will invalidate any running domains that were started with
libvirt.git after the original patch but prior to applying this patch;
but since that is unreleased code, I think anyone affected will be
reading this list, so I'm not worried about it.
