[Libguestfs] question about guestfs_add_drive_opts_blocksize

[Stefan Fiala]

!!Thanks for the help

[option 12 is the blocksize from the new version, tacked into the example code].
Still looks like its linked against the original/old libguestfs.
Can I make a new libguestfs.so from the libguestfs.a and point to it locally?
