[Bug 437100] [NEW] libvirt xml configuration ignores xml comments

[fenix]

Public bug reported:

Release: Jaunty/9.04
Package Version: 0.6.1-0ubuntu5.1

Configuration File:
http://pastebin.com/d6b92c910

Notice the bridged interface is commented out using xml standard
comments (http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#sec-comments), I've also tried
normal bash style comments.

Now if i "brctl delbr br0" and try to start the vm.

root at artanis:~# virsh start zimbra
Connecting to uri: qemu:///system
error: Failed to start domain zimbra
error: internal error Failed to add tap interface 'vnet%d' to bridge 'br0' : No such device

This makes commenting your configuration for documentation/testing
difficult.
