Causes a compiler warning:

These aren't flags, but special timeout values.  Maybe s/Flags/Values/

This name sounds funny; maybe qemuAgentArbitraryCommand might be nicer.

Why 5 seconds here,

> +        seconds = timeout;

but the user's timeout here?  If you are looping while waiting for a
response, then 5 seconds is too long between loops; you will feel
unresponsive; and if the user passes a timeout of 10, you end up waiting
10 seconds.

Won't work - this starts a new agent command every time repeat is
reached, rather than waiting for the completion of an existing command.

Typical formatting would be to split this to two lines:

if (timeout == VIR_DOMAIN_QEMU_AGENT_COMMAND_BLOCK)
    goto repeat;

Definitely needs some work before this function will handle timeout
properly.
