Thank you so much for the explanation, that confirmed all that I saw.
Yet I wonder since newer libvirt works (see my experiments before) they
seem to have fixed that "a different way".
I'd pretty much prefer to fix it by backporting that if applicable.
Do you, based on your work on this, happen to know what the (maybe more
complex) upstream fix for this was?
