I'd put an empty line in between these two ^^ because from data POV we
have two different blocks (one initializes variables, the other
constructs @cmd). But it is really a nit pick.

A-ha! We indeed need to do this. I was under impression that just like
other functions of ours if they fail no allocation is done. But this is
different so we need to call VIR_FREE().
