Commit id '4313fead' added a call to virDomainPanicCheckABIStability() which did not check whether the panic device existed before making a call to virDomainDeviceInfoCheckABIStability() which ended up segfaulting: Thread 1 (Thread 0x7f5332837700 (LWP 10964)): (src=<optimized out>, dst=<optimized out>) at conf/domain_conf.c:13007 (dst=<optimized out>, src=<optimized out>) at conf/domain_conf.c:13712 (src=<optimized out>, dst=<optimized out>) at conf/domain_conf.c:14056 (domain=domain@entry=0x7f53000057c0, vm=vm@entry=0x7f53000036d0, defptr=defptr@entry=0x7f5332836978, snap=snap@entry=0x7f5332836970, update_current=update_current@entry=0x7f5332836962, flags=flags@entry=1) at conf/snapshot_conf.c:1230 (domain=0x7f53000057c0, xmlDesc=<optimized out>, flags=1) at qemu/qemu_driver.c:12719 (domain=domain@entry=0x7f53000057c0, xmlDesc=0x7f53000081d0 "<domainsnapshot>\n <name>snap2</name>\n <description>new-desc</description>\n <state>running</state>\n <parent>\n <name>snap1</name>\n </parent>\n <creationTime>1387487268</creationTime>\n <memory s"..., flags=1) at libvirt.c:19695 ...
