Libguestfs - Jul 2013 - ANNOUNCE: hivex 1.3.8 has been released and needs testing

This contains multiple large code refactorings (see previous patches
posted on this list), plus, hopefully, a full fix for these bugs:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=717583
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=987463

It's a (slightly) risky release and it could do with a lot of testing.

I've also created a separate git repo of Windows registry hives:

http://git.annexia.org/?p=hivex-test-data.git;a=summary

These are *not* freely redistributable -- unfortunate, but I have no
choice because the repo contains registry hives dumped from real
Windows virtual machines.  They do however provide a baseline against
which we can test future hivex releases to see if there are any
obvious regressions.
