Finally what you said percolated through the layers of flint around my mind :-)  'libguestfs' is in the AUR, not in the repos; although its label is "Manages virtual machine images", I'll think it is possibly mislabeled, will try it.

I'm not very familiar with how libguestfs is packaged for Arch Linux,
except that I helped them a bit on extending febootstrap for Arch.  It
could be that virt-inspector is not packaged at all, or that it's in a
different package (in Fedora we split libguestfs over about a dozen
packages).  You'd have to ask the Arch maintainers -- could be Nikos
Skalkotos, who is a subscriber to this list.

I did set up an area for guestfs successfully in virt-manager, but
was not able to figure out how to find it in Windows.
Do you mean that you used the inspection feature of virt-manager
successfully?

The guest is Windows 7 64-bit, if that makes a
difference.
We can inspect any Windows guest since Windows XP, 32 or 64 bit.  The
only reason we don't support earlier than XP is no one has tried it.
