Try running libvirtd with LIBVIRT_LOG_FILTERS="1:qemu 1:security" LIBVIRT_LOG_OUTPUTS="1:stderr" /usr/sbin/libvirtd as it starts up you ought to see some messages about it trying to initialize the security drivers. If you're lucky one might tell you why apparmour was missing, if you compare the log messages from both builds.
