When a libvirt API is called from the main event loop (which seems to be common in event-based glib apps), the client IO loop would properly handle keepalive requests sent by a server but will not actually send them because the main event loop is blocked with the API. This patch gets rid of response timer and the thread which is processing keepalive requests is also responsible for queueing responses for delivery.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
