If you recently cloned libvirt.git, you may have inadvertently picked up 
a broken v0.8.4 tag.  The tag has now been fixed upstream, so clones 
after today are unaffected; and if you cloned before 0.8.4 was released, 
you are probably not affected unless you explicitly fetched the broken tag.

Here's how to check if you have the bad tag, and if so, how to fix it:

case $(git rev-parse v0.8.4 2>/dev/null) in
   37b0b91*) git tag -d v0.8.4 && git fetch origin tag v0.8.4 &&\
     echo 'tag fixed' ;;
   v0.8.4) echo 'tag not present, not a problem' ;;
   7862e07*) echo 'tag already okay' ;;
   *) echo 'where did you get this tag from?' ;;
esac
