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.
