There's another problem lurking here, and I think it's a more serious one:
I don't we are doing proper integration tests with libvirt (we == qemu, but
mostly me).

My tests are sporadic and mostly manual (I used to use libvirt-tck, but it's
been a while since I ran it last time).

Is libvirt-tck the recommended way to run integration tests? If it's we should
be running it frequently.
