I looked through the rest of the qemu-initialization and it looks like this is the only point where the conn-object is needed. So a solution would be to directly access the network driver functions. But on the other hand these functions seem all to imply that there is a valid conn available. So we would have to change that, at least for the lookup-by-name case.
