Laine,

First, thanks for your help, I appreciate it.  Your questions:

1.  # libvirtd -V
libvirtd (libvirt) 1.2.14

2.  I can reproduce this every time.

3.  I compile it myself, so I'll work on getting a libvirt-debug build
going.

So this is compiled on Slackware64-14.1 as I prefer a more bsd linux and
like the simplicity of a traditional init, as well as the ability to
cook this down into a very simple usb based distro not unlike slax.

Earlier I posted a bug
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1210903) and got a reply
fro Shanzhi that said that he was unable to reproduce using
libvirt-1.2.14-1.el7.x86_64 and qemu-kvm-rhev-2.2.0-8.el7.x86_64, but I
don't see his comment on the ticket anymore, so I wonder if he was able
to reproduce and removed his comment or perhaps his comment got
removed.  If it does indeed work on the Redhat packages then that seems
to indicate that there is something that doesn't work when libvirt is
built on non-redhat systems which may be related.

Let me do some more digging and I'll back back to you tomorrow.

Thanks!
