Sorry, still very green with vm wrangling. How do I take the rootfs
tarball and make a qemu image I can use with libvirt?
I've not actually tried it for this situation, but virt-make-fs can
turn a tarball into a disk image.

Probably something like this:
virt-make-fs -s 1G -t ext3 -F raw --partition=mbr rootfs.tar disk.img
