Which version of libvirt and qemu? There has been some progress made

this front lately, and the most likely answer is that you are using
older versions where it was not yet supported. Also, it may depend on
whether your guest OS is responsive to ACPI commands.
I'm particularly concerned with RHEL5, which uses an ancient version
of both (I know that libvirt is 0.6.3, not sure about QEMU off the top
of my head). But the same thing is happening on my Fedora 13 machine,
which is using:
# qemu-kvm --version
QEMU PC emulator version 0.12.3 (qemu-kvm-0.12.3), Copyright (c)

# rpm -q libvirt
libvirt-0.8.2-1.fc13.x86_64
The guests respond to ACPI, since 'virsh shutdown' works as intended in them.
