If virBufferEscapeString is called on a buffer that has 0 bytes of space, a size of -1 will be passed to snprintf, resulting in a segmentation fault. This patch checks for 0 space, and grows the buffer if needed prior to determining size.
I discovered this when I accidentally made virBufferEscapeString the first function to add something to a newly minted buffer. --- src/util/buf.c | 6 ++++++ 1 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)

Good catch. The hardcode of 100 threw me at first, but I see that we appropriately grow the buffer as needed in the loop below, so I think this works. ACK -- Chris Lalancette
