[Libguestfs] [PATCH 0/7] Prepare for adding write support to hivex (windows registry) library

[Richard W.M. Jones]

This series of patches prepares the way for a later series which will
add write support for Windows Registry 'hive' files to our 'hivex'
mini library.

About hivex:
  http://libguestfs.org/hivex.3.html

About the Windows Registry:
  Forget it - there are no reliable references.  However the Wikipedia
  page explains some of the top level concepts:
  https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Windows_Registry
  And this page explains the format, although it is frequently
  inaccurate (just less so than other documents):
  http://www.sentinelchicken.com/data/TheWindowsNTRegistryFileFormat.pdf

These patches are ready for review right now.  I'll post the second
series which add write support later this week.

Rich.
