is the missing /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology/physical_package_id
caused by kernel configuration settings?

I would say that this is a bug in libvirt. Since you are using
quite an old version, can you try upgrading to the new libvirt in
Fedora 14/15 and see if that fixes it?

virt-top is 'top' for virtual machines. Tiny program with many
powerful monitoring features, net stats, disk stats, logging, etc.
