The build failed:

https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=libvirt&arch=amd64&ver=0.9.6-1~bpo60%2B1&stamp=1319900585

I can prepare a backport of 0.9.8 but this will take some time since my
laptops hd is broken. It should be straight forward, just merging git's
master branch into bpo-squeeze is enough.
