This will probably result in a segfault because you are freeing memory that is still in use. Yes the toplevel dev leaks here, but for example qemudDomainAttachNetDevice some lines above takes parts from the dev struct an assigns them to other structs _without_ copying them. I found this leak some time ago too, but gave up on fixing it as I noticed how entangled this code is.
