simulating multiple hypervisors with the test driver

[Tom Ammon]

Daniel,

That got me up and running quickly. The examples were easy to follow, all I
had to do was read a couple of the xml documents to figure out how to get
what I was after. Thank you, and the rest of the people working on the
project, for all the effort you've put into libvirt!
