Appending an item to a list transfers ownership of that item to the list owner. But an error can occur in between item allocation and appending it to the list. In this case the item has to be freed explicitly. This was not done in some special cases resulting in possible memory leaks. Reported by Coverity.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
