I was interested to see how well we could integrate with glib, so I 
knocked up a minimal 'libvirt-glib' library, which provides an event
loop which calls into glib. I also adapted your demo program to
use this too. The code is in this mercurial repository

   http://hg.berrange.com/libraries/libvirt-glib--devel

This is where I spotted the timeout bug I mentioned earlier - aside from 
that it works fairly nicely.
