Is /usr/libexec in PATH? Then the following patch will solve this problem too:
No, its not in the $PATH in this case. The RHEL packaging puts KVM in
the /usr/libexec hierarchy explicitly because it is not intended to be
run directly by end users. In any case, can you apply your patch, and
then we can re-do Chris' patch on top of it.
