Actually the standard F15 build (which is at 0.8.8) doesn't have this 
problem, it's only in the virt-preview build (0.9.4), which would be 
fixed by updating virt-preview to 0.9.6 (released today). I assume that 
since F16 isn't yet released, virt-preview for F15 is still being 
updated, correct? Is there a schedule for when virt-preview builds are done?

(Note that the standard F15 build of libvirt needs to be updated for 
other reasons, just not this one).
