Well, since I was apparently fine with the change when reviewing the same
changes to nodedev, I guess I should be fine with it now too, I don't know what
made me change my opinion as time has passed, nevermind, it's not a deal breaker
for me.
OK - thanks - I did note while looking deeper that I didn't remove
virInterfaceObjListFree() from src/conf/virinterfaceobj.h, so I removed
it...

I hope it didn't sound like a request, it was meant to be more like a wish that
we should do something about it (sometime).
Erik
I didn't take it that way... Just making sure no one would be waiting
for patches from me any time soon that did that type of convergence ;-)
