Funny, I've started to write this prior to seeing your patch. I've ended up more or less with the same.

In both [1] and [2] I suggest to add 'optional' somewhere in the @info attribute. It has a nice advantage (*) that one can simply call:
   dom.fsFreeze()
   dom.fsThaw()

to freeze/thaw all filesystems. 

* - while being a nice advantage, it's hackish too. Long story short, in the method definition, the generator will supply the implicit value to mountpoints argument:

    def fSFreeze(self, mountpoints=None, flags=0):
        """Freeze specified filesystems within the guest. """
        ret = libvirtmod.virDomainFSFreeze(self._o, mountpoints, flags)

This if is useless.

Ouch, freeing a const char? I know you are doing it to shut the gcc up, but I'd rather typecast @mountpoints in the API call a few lines above and satisfy const-correctness.

No, you are saying in -api.xml that you'll return -1 on error. But you're returning NULL. Moreover, I think we should return None rather than -1 if that's the case.

So I guess it's ACK with this squashed in:

Having said that, I'll wait a few moments prior squashing that in and pushing just to allow anybody else to express their opinion. For example, why gcc doesn't like if char ** is passed to a const char ** argument...
