> However, the changes in the C bindings are incompatible with the

> and vbox_CAPI_v4_3.h files which are bundled in libvirt source code. This is
> why the

> As stated by Matthias Bolte, the actual underlying problem here is that
> libvirt assumes that VirtualBox API can only change between release versions
> (4.2 -> 4.3), but we have a case here where it changed (or got fixed) between
> minor versions (4.2.18 -> 4.2.20).
>
> This patch makes the VBOX_API_VERSION represent the full API
> version number (i.e 4002 => 4002000) so there are specific version
> numbers for Vbox 4.2.20 (4002020) and 4.3.4 (4003004)

> As the patch is too big for the mailing list, it is publicly available

ACK and pushed.

I had to fix this patch in one place before pushing. You changed

#if VBOX_API_VERSION == 2002 && defined WIN32

to

#if VBOX_API_VERSION == 2002000 && defined WIN32000

I removed the three zeros from WIN32 before pushing.
