'virDomainObjPrivateJobCallbacks' is passed into the job object by copying a pointer from the 'virDomainXMLOption' struct passed in from the caller. Unfortunately the 'virdomainjob' module can't control the lifetime of the virDomainXMLOption, which in some cases is freed before the domain job data. To avoid dereferencing freed memory create a copy of the struct holding the private job callbacks.
