To be honest, I find this whole section of code difficult to read.  The problem
is that the "checking for success" on VIR_ALLOC() makes it so that the code you
care about is always heavily indented, and leads to the triple else block you
have above.  I much prefer the style used in the rest of libvirt, where you
check for failure and get out, leaving the code you care about not indented so
heavily.  The same general comment goes for the much of the rest of the code
below; while you are adding a bunch of (valuable) checks here, the style and
indentation makes it hard to follow.
