Thank you for your reply.
Well, I did several tests of having a clean system, installing only the 
libvirt0 package and then compiling and installing libvirt-bin with 
--prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var, and libvirt0 still makes 
my compiled version crash. Did I miss a directory?

That particular question might be my point. Maybe I forgot to replace
files from a particular directory? My guess would be something to do
with /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu...

Still, if this doesn't really qualify as a bug, it might still be useful
information for the next Ubuntu release, so maybe we can include an
updated libvirt-bin package on the repositories.

My problem really came from the need to use an update version of the
library along with qemu-kvm and virt-manager, the latter of which,
indirectly depends on libvirt0. I could just uninstall it with dpkg, but
then I will need to reinstall it in order for apt to be able to upgrade
packages.

I took the liberty of trying out a dummy libvirt0 package I made, and so
far, everything works.
