The root cause is that older libvirt failed at parsing the qemu 1.0 version
string. Please file a bug with your distro and ask them to backport this fix
so other users won't hit the same problem:

Hi Cole,
you're right. I installed libvirt-0.9.8 (instead of 0.9.6) and it works
fine with qemu-1.0-r2.
Gentoo doesn't have to backport it. There is 0.9.8 allready in portage,
but masked (means not 100% stable). But qemu-kvm-1.0-r2 is also marked
as masked. Therefore it is only a combination of one masked
(qemu-kvm-1.0-r2) and one unmasked (libvirt-0.9.6) package, which isn't
anything I could complain about :)
Maybe I should fill in a "bug" report that if qemu-kvm is unmasked they
need to unmask libvirt, too. I'll thing about it.
Thank you for clearing things up.
Kind regards,
Felix Blanke
