It is a subtle issue crossing several layers. libvirt internally

virDomainPtr instances based on name. You created a object in the perl
layer '$dom' with the name, and then you create a new instance with
the
same name, but assign to a diferent perl object '$newdom'. This means
that the old virDomainPtr associated with $dom still exists. If you
explicitly set '$dom = undef' before creating the second domain you
should release the old handle & make it all work as expected
thanks for the explanation .. my script now works as expected.
BTW, additional test cases for libvirt-TCK should be send as patches to
this list, correct?
