I see this every time on one KVM host machine and never on my other KVM 
host machine.

Good one is:

   Fully patched 11.10 Server (no desktop) acting as KVM host using 
vmbuilder to create guest instances of 11.10 server.

Bad one is:

   Fully patched 11.10 Workstation with Virtualization packages added 
executing the exact same command line.

I created a shell script to contain my vmbuilder command line and copied 
it to both host machines to be sure that I was performing identical 
activities on each.


I did dig through the Python traceback enough to locate the line 
throwing the exception.
Adding a simple "sleep" for 5 seconds makes it work every time.
I tried to add the suggested debug statements regarding the 
determination of who is holding the mount point busy.
But, for the life of me, I could not figure out where the log file went 
to -- where is the output of the debug being written?

I'm willing to investigate more if it's of service to anyone.
