please find a possible asprintf vs. virAsprintf cleanup attached. There were several occations where the result of a failed asprintf was used.

Nice work. ACK.

This looks fine, but it might be a little clearer to use a one-character range in the regexp in place of the pair of adjacent single quotes. And a couple other minor changes: # Use virAsprintf rather than a'sprintf since *strp is undefined on error. sc_prohibit_asprintf: @grep -nE '\<[a]sprintf\>' $$($(VC_LIST_EXCEPT)) && \ { echo '$(ME): use virAsprintf, not a'sprintf 1>&2; exit 1; } || : ...
