If brSetForwardDelay() fails, we go to err1 where we want to access
macTapIfName variable which was just VIR_FREE'd a few lines above.

*raises hand*

Thanks for fixing this.

ACK.

(In the spirit of putting all the frees down at the bottom (so that any later additions to the code don't need to remember to add VIR_FREE(macTapIfName) before they jump to err0), I might have added an "err0_5" label just above the VIR_FREE during error recovery, and jumped to there instead of err0. But this way also works, and it's only a single line, not a bunch of them, so I also might not have :-).)
