Bug Description
Binary package hint: virt-manager
I've been trying to decrease my number of CPUs to a XP guest from 2 to 1, but when I go to Apply, virt-manager freezes. The change is not committed to the xml file in /etc/libvirt/qemu/
After closing the frozen windows, I cannot reconnect to qemu:///system from anywhere. I'm not sure if the problem is specifically with virt-manager, perhaps it is with libvirt-bin. Restarting kvm and/or libvirt-bin does not solve the problem, I must reboot.

Description of problem:
libvirtd hangs when an attempt to set the number of virtual CPUs for a shut-off KVM guest is made.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.6.0-3. fc10.x86_ 64
libvirt-
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. testguest is a previously installed KVM guest domain. It is not currently running.
2. virsh setvcpus testguest 1
Actual results: d/libvirtd restart" brings it back to life.
virsh hangs. I can kill it CTRL+C. If I then run "virsh", it hangs too. "/etc/init.
Expected results:
The number of VCPUs for testguest should be set to the desired value and it should not take longer than a fraction of a second.
Additional info:
virsh setmem and setmaxmem operations work fine, they do not make libvirtd hang.
