It looks like there may still be error-path leaks (the buffers pointed to by nodes[i]), but that can wait for another day.
No, the xmlNodePtr in the nodes array are owned by the XML document object and are freed when the xmlDocPtr gets freed.

Yes, the nodes array is allocated by virXPathNodeSet to return the list of xmlNodePtrs and needs to be freed here. ACK. Matthias
