NACK.  The s_disk_id field is supposed to just be a unique ID and
-i libvirt is giving it a unique value here so it's not wrong.

The problem with this bug is that the output driver used the s_disk_id
field assuming it was a unique, monotonically increasing number
counting from 0.  (See my other patch to fix that)
