Great to hear this all works for you.

I'll be sure to take that automake change 
(autoconf/automake is still a bit new to me, and I still find it a bit cryptic)

As for the test app - I don't think that it is appropriate to run from make check
It was more designed to be a developer example, as suggested here:

Nice work.
I spotted no problems in review, and noticed only one when testing:
In the new file, examples/domain-events/events-c/Makefile.am

that would fail with a non-srcdir build (i.e., when the
build_dir != srcdir), because then @top_srcdir@/src/.libs
doesn't exist, and that causes "make distcheck" to fail.

Also, it is best not to reference libtool's .libs/ directories
directly, so you can use this instead:

diff --git a/examples/domain-events/events-c/Makefile.am b/examples/domain-events/events-c/Makefile.am
index 1788dac..3c63ca3 100644
--- a/examples/domain-events/events-c/Makefile.am

-event_test_LDADD = -L at top_srcdir@/src/.libs -lvirt
+event_test_LDADD = @top_builddir@/src/libvirt.la

Finally, I noticed that "make check" does not run the new
event-test program that's built there.  Should it?
