Dead!

FYI, it wasn't as easy as usual.  Due to the presence of a couple
of pesky $Id$ strings in the removed files, my usual procedure
to push a git commit to cvs failed, due to the mismatch of $Id$
against the expanded version in the cvs-checked out copy.
I probably could have made it work by using e.g., cvs admin -kk ...,
but thought of that only while writing this.  I did it manually.

To avoid future $Id$-related inconvenience, I'm going to remove
the few remaining occurrences of $Id$

    $ g grep '\$Id\$'
    RENAMES:# $Id$
    po/id.po:# $Id$
    qemud/remote_generate_stubs.pl:# $Id$
    src/virsh.c: * $Id$
    tests/testutils.c: * $Id$
    tests/testutils.h: * $Id$

with extreme prejudice.

I hope no one objects ;-)
