Not so far.  I'm neither for-nor-against doing so, so feel to
change if it needed. :)

For an OSX 10.8 VM here, it's working with Homebrew.

To make it work, I:

* downloaded the libvirt-1.1.2-rc1.tar.gz tarball to the Homebrew cache directory
* renamed it to libvirt-1.1.2.tar.gz
* Updated the Homebrew "libvirt.rb" file to look for libvirt-1.1.2.tar.gz
  instead of libvirt-1.1.1.tar.gz

 (and updated the sha256sum to match)

At that point, "brew install libvirt" works with the new
tarball.

So, definitely not a comprehensive test... but it does make
it past general compilation.

Doug, how are you compiling?
