4:21 a.m.
Added a workable initial page for the libvirt Application
Development Guide, giving the online viewable options +
the downloadable pdf.
Added a link to the PDF to the main Downloads page, plus
neatened the html tags throughout the page as they
were a bit of a mess.

+ libvirt uses the standard configure/make/install steps:
+ </p>
+
+ <pre>
+ gunzip -c libvirt-xxx.tar.gz | tar xvf -
+ cd libvirt-xxxx
+ ./configure --help</pre>
+
+ <p>
+ To see the options, then the compilation/installation proper:
+ </p>
+
+ <pre>
+ ./configure [possible options]
+ make
+ make install</pre>
+
+ <p>
+ At that point you may have to rerun ldconfig or a similar utility to
+ update your list of installed shared libs.

+ <h2>Building from a source code checkout</h2>
+
+ <p>
+ The libvirt build process uses GNU autotools, so after obtaining a
+ checkout it is necessary to generate the configure script and Makefile.in
+ templates using the <code>autogen.sh</code> command, passing the extra
+ arguments as for configure. As an example, to do a complete build and
+ install it into your home directory run:
</p>
- <pre>
