I've fixed those OOMErrors and the whitespace already for v3 however I won't send the v3 of the patch until I get reply to this since some other approach may have to be chosen for the port = 0 things. comments inline ...
Hmm, why exactly are these port = 0 changes needed? Were they breaking some tests?
Exactly. It was breaking almost all of the xmconfigtests and sexpr2xmltests. The reason was that it was never set in the code to setup just one serial/parallel port and this is why it was breaking it. That's the reason for those changes to port = 0.
Yeah, at first I didn't think they were necessary, but I see now that they are. Reason being that we only do the port allocation when parsing XML, not when formatting any random DomainDefPtr like I was assuming. So it's better to have all the callers manually set a target port if building a ChrDefPtr by hand. Sorry for the noise. Thanks, Cole

I think these test files would be better named serial-target-port-auto.
Good, I'll do that name change for v3.
Thanks, Michal
