Bug Description

This does not affect Oneiric or Maverick. It seems the combination of qemu and libvirt in natty causes this problem. Upstream bugs:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=678548
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=672725
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=678524

It appears that redhat had a fix to help with this in:
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2011-0596.html

And a fix for qemu in:
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-0534.html

Finally, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=678548#c7 gives the commit (in 0.9.0) to also fix this issue. I have not investigated this heavily, but discovered the issue when running test-libvirt.py in QRT. Since natty is released and not an LTS, I am not sure how worthwhile this is to fix. I have disabled the save/restore tests in QRT for natty for the time being.
