maint: avoid spurious output if program not present
Some shells warn about missing programs before redirection; the idiomatic way to silence them is to run the program check inside a subshell, with the redirections outside the subshell. But a subshell is only needed in places where it is reasonable to expect the use of such a noisy shell in the first place. * src/Makefile.am (remote_protocol-structs): Use subshell, for FreeBSD 8.0 /bin/sh. * cfg.mk (sc_preprocessor_indentation): Avoid subshell, since the only users running cfg.mk can be assumed to have decent tools.
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.

Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
