There are some things to consider:
- Did you use the exact same commandline as the initscript when
testing manually?
Yes. In fact, the only parameter passed is the --daemon parameter with
current configuration.
- Did you make sure to use the same environment variable
configuration when
starting libvirtd manually, compared to the initscript?
Here's the environment of the root user, I will try to find out the
environment of the service script:

Do you see any environment variable that may affect behaviour of libvirtd?
Could you provide a GDB backtrace of the segfault? The syslog entry only
says that it crashed in libc, that's not enough information to
debug the segfault.
Unfortunately, I can't find a related core file in the system. In fact, core
file is not generated. I'll also try to fix this out and come back to the
list.
Thanks a lot,
Emre
