Diego reported a bug where virsh tries to initialize a readline
history directory during 'make check' run as root, but fails
because /root was read-only.
It turns out that I could reproduce this as non-root, by using:
mv ~/.virsh{,.bak}
chmod a-w ~
make check -C tests TESTS=int-overflow
chmod u+w ~
mv ~/.virsh{.bak,}
* tests/int-overflow: Don't trigger interactive mode.
Reported by Diego Elio PettenÃ.

Found it. virsh without non-option arguments is interactive
and triggers readline shenanigans; change from echoing into
an interactive session into running a non-interactive batch session.
