I just tried to get libguestfs to compile on Ubuntu 11.10 using the latest febootstrap, and the following patches were necessary for me. They are all just reasonable code cleanups *except* for patch 5/5 which is a gross hack for something I don't understand about how Ubuntu 11.10 multiarch support works. Rich.

Joseph, Please try my modified versions of these patches. These are compile-tested on Fedora and they don't break any existing functionality, but I don't have either urpmi nor a statically-linked xz so I cannot fully test them. I have also fixed detection of zlib (2/3). Rich.
