In case of error the objects are disposed by libxl_domain_config_dispose.

I just realized this is not always true, unless this change is applied on top.
If libxlMakeNic fails, libxl_domain_config_dispose can not release anything.
With this additional change each successfully initialized object can be fully disposed.

These changes make the function a little more difficult to read IMO. How about if we keep the goto, but relabel it to 'out' (another common pattern in libvirt)? E.g.
