Thie patch fixes the segfault:
error : nodeStateInitialize:658 : DBus not available,
disabling HAL driver: internal error: Unable to get DBus
system bus connection: Failed to connect to socket
/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
error : nodeStateInitialize:719 : ?:
Caught Segmentation violation dumping internal log buffer:
This segfault occurs at the below VIR_ERROR:
failure:
if (dbus_error_is_set(&err)) {
VIR_ERROR(_("%s: %s"), err.name, err.message);
When virDBusGetSystemBus fails, the code jumps to the above failure
path. However, the err variable is not correctly initialized
before calling virDBusGetSystemBus. As a result, dbus_error_is_set
may pass over the uninitialized err variable whose name or
message may point to somewhere unknown memory region, which
causes a segfault on VIR_ERROR.
The new code initializes the err variable before calling
virDBusGetSystemBus.

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.
