The formatting is all off, rewritten to make it a bit easier:

So I think what you're trying to point out is there is an edge condition
whereby if an active domain is undefined, then it's possible that the
qemuDomainSnapshotCreateDiskActive would call virDomainSaveConfig thus
recreating the domain.
Is that about right?

Wrong indention here. The vm->newDef would need to align under the cfg->
or you could put the virDomainSaveConfig on the next line aligned under
the vm->persistent.
I'll need to look a bit more or hope that perhaps Peter sees this and
has some quick advice.
