	<flag name="macvtap">
		Support for MAC-based TAP (macvlan/macvtap). For networking instead

	<flag name="virt-network">
		Enable virtual networking (NAT) support for guests. Includes all
		the dependencies for NATed network mode. Effectively any network
		setup that relies on libvirt to setup and configure network
		interfaces on your host. This can include bridged and routed
		networks ONLY if you are allowing libvirt to create and manage
		the underlying devices for you. In some cases this requires
		enabling the 'netcf' USE flag (currently unavailable).
