libtirpc is new enough, and I haven't distributed my built libvirt 
anywhere, that I would be just fine with a -2 without a new API number, 
if that makes life easier for you.  Ultimately, I do plan on doing an 
ITP for libvirt.  Right now, we don't really have any native VMs like 
qemu working under cygwin, and kvm is out of the question without access 
to the kernel; but a cygwin-built libvirt _is_ capable of doing remote 
control of VMs hosted on another machine.  But the ITP can wait until we 
are happy with the libtirpc situation.
