[wplug] KVM error in Fedora 20

[Justin Smith]

We use Scientific Linux 6.4 at work, and no, it doesn't occur with that 
- at least, in the test VM I just fired up. I just thought I'd try it 
under Fedora as well since RHEL 7, which is a lot more similar to Fedora 
20, should be coming out in the near future.

(I know RHEL 7 won't be on the test, but I'm a perfectionist, so there.)

Yeah, I should probably go ahead and report this.
