Actually, I'd like to depend on a not yet existing future version that
includes the patches I've posted upstream for it ..

Memory leaks in wsmc_action_enum_and_pull and wsmc_release
http://sf.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3317862&group_id=151841&atid=782284

ws_serializer_free_mem doesn't work
http://sf.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3317870&group_id=151841&atid=782284

TRACE_EXIT can be skipped in some functions
http://sf.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3317873&group_id=151841&atid=782284

optarg and optind in u/os.h conflict with system headers
http://sf.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3323325&group_id=151841&atid=782284

wsman-xml-serializer.h misses SER_NS_INT* macros
http://sf.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3325111&group_id=151841&atid=782284

.. just to reference them. Most important are the patches for
ws_serializer_free_mem. This problem could be worked around in libvirt
code, but would require duplicating several 100 lines of OpenWSMAN
code.

In the future we'll need to detect the actual version and enable some
currently disabled code sections in the driver to improve the memory
usage footprint. We'll need to get this info from pkg-config as
OpenWSMAN doesn't provide a way to get it's version at compile time.

Anyway, I checked and tested the history of OpenWSMAN and it seems
that this requirement can be relaxed to 2.2.3 without problems.

I'd like to delay pushing this series until it's completely ACK'ed. In
the meantime here's a v2 of this patch to simplify compile testing the
whole series.
