libvirt users - Sep 2012 - can not connect hypervisor using libvirt-0.9.8 on windows

Hi, Eric:
I compiled libvirt-0.9.8 source code with the msys environment on windows xp.
the compiltion was successed.
but when I connect the remote host using virsh.exe, it occured error like:
error: Failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: Unable to set close-on-exec flag: No such file or directory

Is there something wrong?  give me some help, thanks!

Unfortunately, I'm afraid I've never tried to compile libvirt on msys,
so you'll probably have to roll up your sleeves and step through this in
gdb to see where things appear to be going wrong.

Can you be more specific here?

To what hypervisor did you try to connect?

What URI did you use?

Why didn't you use the latest libvirt version supported by msys_setup
(assuming that you used msys_setup), which is 0.9.11?
