Doesn't seem like it.  Just started virsh again, but the pid of that
process doesn't match the # given this time (which did change though).

Terminal window 1:

  virsh # version
  error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
  error: no valid connection
  error: Failed to find user record for uid '32706'

Terminal window 2: (virsh still open in #1)

  $ ps -ef|grep -i virsh
    501 35262 35252   0 10:38am ttys000    0:00.03 virsh
  $ ps -ef|grep -i 32706
  $

Not seeing anything in the "327xx" range, and new pid's
are (atm) in the "353xx" range.

Not sure where it's picking up the "uid" value from, and haven't
really tried tracing it.  I wonder if it's just an OSX thing, or
if maybe *BSD is showing something similar...
