  Small reality check for you:
    - did you try to apply it ? doesn't work: that code has completely changed
    - did you see the "I haven't had the time to clean it up properly" in the
      original message ?
    - libvirt *do* use dnsmasq

That said I'm working on a new version of the patch which would be adequate
I hope for inclusion, but complaints like this are counter productive and
suggestion to blindly apply patches without making sure they work and that
the code is in sane state are just improper, sorry !
