I don't recall what the problem was, but it looks like that bit of the
makefile could be cleaned up. I'd expect anything that's in the conf/
directory to be listed under the same _SOURCES variable.
The problem is that when libvirt_lxc binary is built it includes and
links helpers from src/conf/ but does not link everything required for
all the helpers. Some of the helpers (notably: virconsole and
virdomainlist) require some other functions to be linked although they
are not used in libvirt_lxc resulting in a linking failure. I've worked
this around with a separate _SOURCES variable in the makefile that is
not included into libvirt_lxc.
