What's the difference between the path that would terminate normally and
the one that terminates abnormally. It seems to me there might be (an)
extra Ref(s) on the client which prevents virNetServerClientDispose from
calling it's @privateDataFreeFunc which would call remoteClientFreeFunc
since remoteClientInitHook worked properly.

That's what needs to be found.

FWIW: This commit message was a bit difficult to follow - I know it's
primarily a language barrier thing - so maybe if you just construct some
function code flow for both initialization/open and destruction/close
it'd help... Paths that work and the path that you think is broken...
That can be done in this section after the "---" and before the changed
API's.

I assume you've done a lot of research, but the details of that research
can be difficult to just "pick up on".  Typically someone will provide
some sort of valgrind output as an example.

I just have a sense that this could boil down to a path (or two) that
are doing the virObjectRef without the expected virObjectUnref occurring
- something perhaps to do with how @wantClose is handled in the abnormal
termination case. Nothing jumps out at me though even after looking at
the code for a while.

Well each of the callers has already dereferenced @priv so it's a bit
too late to check it now!

There should be another blank line here.

Perhaps this just gets a "if (priv->conn)" before calling...

Still if as I assume the missing Unref is found (someday), then
theoretically remoteClientFreeFunc would be called - of course the
nEventCallbacks = 0 will ensure the Dereg's dont' get called again. So
it shoudn't be a problem
