Change http://gerrit.ovirt.org/11709 by Amador has introduced this dependency. I would not mind a static hack that reverts this patch on Fedora 18. However, there is no way around it - vdsm master branch is always going to use fresh vir features from libvirt, and I wouldn't like to add runtime legacy code of "if new libvirt: use new feature; else: use stub". libvirt itself is hiding qemu cr*p like this, I don't think we have the capacity to do that, too. So, I suggest that people compile a fresh libvirt for their development platform; and that Ewoud moves his slave to a fresher Fedora (or at least get a newer pep8 tool) as soon as possible in order to avoid such errors.
