Ok, I've added <feature><acpi/></feature> and got rid of the pc-1.1
rubbish, now the qemu looks like:
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -name cedric.CalvaEDI.COM -S -machine

-nographic -no-user-config -nodefaults -chardev

isa-serial,chardev=charserial0,id=serial0 -device
virtio-balloon-pci,id=balloon0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x7 -msg timestamp=on
and when I try the virsh attach-device I get:
adriatic:~# virsh attach-device cedric.CalvaEDI.COM zz.xml
Device attached successfully
On the guest I see that /dev/vdc has been created.
I get an amazing amount of rubbish in the guest dmesg:

...
but it has shut up now and the new disk seems to work.
So I guess this bug is all down to user error, aided by silly defaults
chosen by libvirt.
