Immediately after libvirtd restart I'm unable to start machines, it breaks scripts.

 ~ # /etc/init.d/libvirtd restart && virsh start test
 * Stopping libvirtd ...                                                                                                                                              [ ok ]
 * Starting libvirtd ...                                                                                                                                              [ ok ]
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock': No such file or directory

ewaitfile in the initscript start_post() usually helps to wait for socket/pidfile availability, it makes initscript return after file is available and has a timeout option.

you can define it in confd file as a workaround, but ideally it should be a part if initscript itself of course.
