I was reviewing this at the end of last month and was the last "good"
run I got out of my cimtest before a 10/30/13 update to tog-pegasus
seems to have removed the ability to use libvirt-cim as a provider. I
have a feeling the issue has something to do with the PG_InterOp
definitions, but I'm not quite sure as the wording on the OpenPegasus
pages regarding this isn't clear to me.

Unfortunately it seems the community has been reduced in scope to a very
few and while libvirt continues to move forward libvirt-cim languishes
behind. Lately finding time to review 50+ patches has been a challenge.

In any case, while I haven't had the time to get into the details of the
changes it seems the issue is that you have devised a way to ensure XML
changes to libvirt aren't "lost" by libvirt-cim.  I have to try and
figure out another way to review/test the patches since my current means
of my f19 laptop doesn't with tog-pegasus 2.12.1-8 no longer works.
