Luckily -2 happens only internally, so we never broke any public API
promise:

This is caused by virNetServerProgramDispatchCall treating any negative
value as error and transporting it over RPC and then
virNetClientProgramCall in the client returning -1 if the returned reply
is of VIR_NET_ERROR type.
