Well the problem with such patches is that fixing tests on new libvirt often
breaks tests on new libvirt. We don't need to keep all tests running correctly
on both versions but I'm trying to avoid breaking the test suite for versions
that are in latest fedora at least. So for now it's probably best to continue
to send patches to the list.
