I'd prefer just to have pyobj_dict freed outside of the if-else
statement:

diff --git c/libvirt-override.c w/libvirt-override.c
index d746350..78a7f08 100644
--- c/libvirt-override.c
+++ w/libvirt-override.c

     if (!pyobj_ret) {
         DEBUG("%s - ret:%p\n", __FUNCTION__, pyobj_ret);
         PyErr_Print();
-        Py_XDECREF(pyobj_dict);
     } else {
         Py_DECREF(pyobj_ret);
         ret = 0;
     }
+    Py_XDECREF(pyobj_dict);

     LIBVIRT_RELEASE_THREAD_STATE;
     return ret;


Mind posting v2?
