That crossed my mind when I first thought of cutting out this code, so I audited just to be sure - virNetworkDNSHostsDefParseXML() is called only by virNetworkDNSDefParseXML(), which always allocates the passed in def with VIR_ALLOC(), so def->nhosts is guaranteed to be initialized to 0. (Every other "nItems" in the virNetworkDNSDef is implicitly initialized; this is the only odd one, so removing it will eliminate potential confusion by anyone who is "coding by example". In general it seems that all of the ...ParseXML() functions assume that they're working with a struct that has been 0-filled.)
If we don't want to assume 0-filled structs, there's a *lot* of work to be done in the conf directory :-)
