You don't need to specify the /usr/sbin/libvirtd binary name on the
command line to GDB if you're about to use 'attach', because GDB will
find it automatically from the PID, but ACK anyway
okay, just that I always do it that way, and since that's the only
example of gdb usage on that page, being a bit more complete should
not hurt :-)
