Why can't you do that stuff in a pre-start script?
I tried that but any change to the variables didn't get propagated into
variables used in the exec stanza.
I tried something like:
env LIBVIRTD_CONFIG_ARGS=
env LIBVIRTD_ARGS=
pre-start script
source sysconfig files and set those variables
end script
exec /usr/sbin/libvirtd --daemon $LIBVIRTD_CONFIG_ARGS $LIBVIRTD_ARGS
and libvirtd wasn't started with anything but --daemon.
