The reason for this is so that we can issue fake event notifications for start/stopped/added/removed when virConnectDomainEventRegister() is not available. Not all hypervisors support the virConnectDomainEventRegister() API, so we need that fallback code. When you succesfully call virConnectDomainEventRegister(), we should disable the event emitting part at the end of gvir_connection_fetch_domains() to avoid duplicate events.
