As long as it's guaranteed that any target qemu supported by libvirt 
does support the interrogation you are going to do it's probably fine.

The problem with your patch is that qom-get was added in qemu 1.1
whereas libvirt supports versions since 0.12

This would effectively reduce compatibility to 1.1 which we should not
do as a side effect of a unrelated change.
