Will this work in VPATH builds? Previously, we have done hacks where
the test directory can provide an override string; if the override is
NULL (the default, for use in libvirtd), then use @localstatedir@, but
if the override is provided (from the test case), then use that instead.
Where are we doing that in libvirtd, I can't find something like that.
Also how would you do that in general? Environment variable?
LD_PRELOAD to replace networkDnsmasqLeaseFileName for testing
(assuming that LD_PRELOAD works in this case)?
