Well, anyway, on the source, I forced a fsck, then tried again, with no 
improvement.

I am using libguestfs through oVirt 3.4 (RHEV), and whoever knows this 
project knows how intricated the packages are.
As this is a production environment, I can not play with trying to 
change libguestfs on the oVirt manager.
But I would be enthusiastic to install a dedicated P2V server, on RH7, 
with the very last libguestfs, if that helps me to insure our future P2V 
will succeed.
But according to what I understood so far, I'm not sure one can install 
such a P2V server, independent of any oVirt setup.

As a matter of fact, I'll be glad to test the last libguestfs version, 
but I don't know where I could use it?
