+# ../clone/virt-sysprep

+# Perl bindings
+# ../edit/virt-edit -e
+# ../tools/virt-win-reg (Perl)
+# ../tools/virt-make-fs (Perl)
+#   - hard because Perl doesn't cooperate by freeing memory
+#
+# Python bindings
+#   - as for Perl
+#
+# Ruby bindings
+#   - these look feasible to test using valgrind
+#
+# Java bindings
+#
+# ../fuse/guestmount
+#   - hard to test because guestmount forks into the background, and
+#     if valgrind reports errors it doesn't stop the test shell script
