In this case yes, but if you add one further line at the end of
this example
conn2 = dom.get_connection()
And then have python garbage collect 'dom' and the original 'conn'
you're not safe because 'conn2' didn't increment the reference
count:
/*
* virDomainGetConnect:
* @dom: pointer to a domain
*
* Provides the connection pointer associated with a domain. The
* reference counter on the connection is not increased by this
* call.
*/
