Reading that bug report, it looks like upstream libvirt.git should
be patched to add a runtime test on whether a remote nc supports the
-q option, rather than blindly assuming that 'nc -q' exists on the
remote side.
This is the patch we're currently using in Debian for that (based
on a
version originally forwarded from Ubuntu):

I'd be happy to push that since this is the distro specific patch I have
to adjust the most ;)
