Hello Serge, it worked flawlessly.

To test it I did the following steps:

1) Added poposed repository line in sources.list of hypervisor:
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-proposed restricted main 
multiverse universe

2) Kept back other proposed packages adding the following in
/etc/apt/preferences.d/proposed

Package: *
Pin: release a=precise-security
Pin-Priority: 990

Package: *
Pin: release a=precise-updates
Pin-Priority: 900

Package: *
Pin: release a=precise-proposed
Pin-Priority: 400

3) apt-get update && apt-get upgrade

4) apt-get install libvirt-bin/precise-proposed libvirt0/precise-
proposed

5) Stopped VM, edited config in virsh adding 6 USB devices:

    <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='usb' managed='yes'>
      <source>
        <vendor id='0x067b'/>
        <product id='0x2303'/>
        <address bus='2' device='4'/>
      </source>
    </hostdev>
    <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='usb' managed='yes'>
      <source>
        <vendor id='0x067b'/>
        <product id='0x2303'/>
        <address bus='2' device='5'/>
      </source>
    </hostdev>
    <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='usb' managed='yes'>
      <source>
        <vendor id='0x067b'/>
        <product id='0x2303'/>
        <address bus='2' device='6'/>
      </source>
    </hostdev>
    <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='usb' managed='yes'>
      <source>
        <vendor id='0x067b'/>
        <product id='0x2303'/>
        <address bus='2' device='7'/>
      </source>
    </hostdev>
    <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='usb' managed='yes'>
      <source>
        <vendor id='0x067b'/>
        <product id='0x2303'/>
        <address bus='2' device='8'/>
      </source>
    </hostdev>
    <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='usb' managed='yes'>
      <source>
        <vendor id='0x067b'/>
        <product id='0x2303'/>
        <address bus='2' device='9'/>
      </source>
    </hostdev>

6) Restarted the VM, and it detects all of them:

Bus 001 Device 002: ID 067b:2303 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 067b:2303 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 067b:2303 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 067b:2303 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port
Bus 001 Device 007: ID 067b:2303 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port
Bus 001 Device 008: ID 067b:2303 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port

Thanks a lot!
