VIR_MEMORY_* as an enum type, then redefine virDomainMemoryCheck() as (note the last param is changed):
int virDomainMemoryPeek (virDomainPtr dom, unsigned long long start, size_t size, void *buffer, enum virDomainMemoryFlags flags);
That is ugly, it's also wrong, it break API and ABI compatibility, forget about it !
Let me know your idea about this.
If more C was implemented with defensive programming, and if people didn't broke API every time they think "it would be nicer" then it would be way easier to actually develop in C ! Please change your mindset that just doesn't work in the long term, sorry ...
