Daniel P. Berrange 89b2e56d7a Only allow the UNIX transport in remote driver when setuid 
We don't know enough about quality of external libraries used
for non-UNIX transports, nor do we want to spawn external
commands when setuid. Restrict to the bare minimum which is
UNIX transport for local usage. Users shouldn't need to be
running setuid if connecting to remote hypervisors in any
case.

         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.
