[Spice-devel] Testing spice-webdav - problem with spice-webdavd in Windows XP

[Benjamin Vanheuverzwijn]

The problem was that i was running qemu-1.7.1 without this patch "hook
qemu_chr_fe_set_open()":
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2014-01/msg01239.html

It won't work directly to qemu-1.7.1, this one (attached) should work.

Thanks to Marc-Andre for the support!
