F14 doesn't have inspect_get_product_variant (F15 does). The only

needed for is differentiating Win7 from Win2k8r2 when writing to RHEV, so work
round it if it's not there.

My tests indicated that you have to write:
if (defined (Sys::Guestfs->can ("inspect_get_product_variant"))) ...
However I don't know if 'defined' is really needed there or not.
'can' is documented this way:
can(METHOD)
"can" checks to see if its object has a method called "METHOD",
if it does then a reference to the sub is returned, if it does
not then "undef" is returned.
It seems to hang on whether the sub reference could ever be evaluated
to false (eg. it could be "0" or something like that). That seems
unlikely to me right now ...
