Have you set any LIBVIRT_LOG environment variables or set any of
the logging settings in /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf ? If so, which
ones ?  Your log file contains alot of stuff I wouldn't normally
expect to be there & I wonder if there is a verbose logging level
enabled that is causing a buffer overflow somewhre ?

This is the ultimate problem - your guest XML lists 'pc-0.13', so I assume
you must have deployed this guest with a newer QEMU and now trying to start
it with an older one. Changing the XML to list one of these valid machine
types should let you start the guest
