Ok... Maybe some amusing time to trigger some hate mail from Serge. From the sounds of this thread, it sounds like they did this with "malice aforethought"... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/247583 Our own dear Serge added this comment near the bottom... -- > As has been discussed upstream, adding a generic custom conf file > hides useful information when debugging.

I would personally suggest that maybe you could take the advice to disable the libvirt dnsmasq and configure and start your own independently as described in that article. That would be a 3rd option to using the distro configuration files (ifcfg-eth?) or using the lxc configuration options for static addresses.
