+ Require use of GCC 4.4 or CLang compilers
+ </summary>
+ <description>
+ We only ever test libvirt with GCC or CLang which provides a
+ GCC compatible compilation environment. Between them, these
+ compilers cover every important operating system platform,
+ even Windows.

+ qemu: shared disks with directsync cache should be safe for migration
+ </summary>
+ <description>
+ At present shared disks can be migrated with either readonly or
+ <code>cache=none</code>. But
<code>cache=directsync</code> should be
+ safe for migration, because both <code>cache=directsync</code> and
+ cache=none don't use the host page cache, and
+ <code>cache=direct</code> write through qemu block layer cache.

+ qemu: Use vcpu 'node-id' property and pass it back to qemu
+ </summary>
+ <description>
+ Vcpu properties gathered from query-hotpluggable cpus need to be
+ passed back to qemu. As qemu did not use the node-id property until
+ now and libvirt forgot to pass it back properly (it was parsed but
+ not passed around) we did not honor this.

+ Misceleanous qemu domain NS fixes
+ </summary>
+ <description>
