If you're running RHEL, then you should open a support incident with Red Hat. If you're running some other distro, you should find the most recent pre-built package for that distro. If that doesn't help and you have to build libvirt yourself, then rather than upgrading to some different old version (1.0.5), you would probably do better to upgrade to the latest release (1.1.2). Another possibility I thought of was to checkout the v0.10.2-maint branch from libvirt git and build that, but it unfortunately appears that some patches that were backported from upstream master to the RHEL6 build haven't been backported to the upstream v0.10.2-maint branch (and the series of patches that fix the bug in question are in the "not backported" category). However, you could start with a checkout of that branch, then add the patches for this bug - that would at least give better results than starting with vanilla v0.10.2 release sources and applying the patches.
