Hi, I applied these patches and tested it a little bit.
I created a snapshot of a running vm, before applying these patches, 
snapshot-dumpxml the snapshot output:
<domainsnapshot>
<name>firstshot</name>
<state>running</state>
<creationTime>1316766961</creationTime>
<domain type='kvm'>

It can be seen that <domain></domain> didn't incident well, it's in the 
same level with the domainsnapshot.
After applying these patches making, restarting the libvirtd, then virsh 
snapshotdumpxml the snapshot output:
<domainsnapshot>
<name>firstshot</name>
<state>running</state>
<creationTime>1316766961</creationTime>
<domain type='kvm'>

It can be seen that the <domain></domain> indent correctly.

I typed 'make check' in the tests directory. The 
domainsnapshotxml2xmltest part output:
TEST: domainsnapshotxml2xmltest
       ......                                   6   OK
PASS: domainsnapshotxml2xmltest

I ran the domainsnapshotxml2xmltest script, it output:
TEST: domainsnapshotxml2xmltest
       ......                                   6   OK

That's what I've done. Thanks.
