Seems to work - thanks.

But: how do I change setting in /etc/libvirt/qemu/<guest>.xml file, so 
that libvirt knows about it?

Right now, as I edit it, the guest starts with old values (i.e. <cpu> I 
specified before, but which is already gone from the file).

Restarting libvirtd doesn't seem to be a really proper way, or?
