GetSnapshot with a name is wrong. According to the docs GetSnapshot
takes an UUID and FindSnapshot takes a name. GetSnapshot also takes
NULL as UUID and returns the first snapshot then. GetSnapshot and
FindSnapshot have been there since version 2.2 and probably earlier.
In version 4.0 FindSnapshot and GetSnapshot have been merged into
FindSnapshot that now takes a UUID or a name.
So as you're doing a name lookup here GetSnapshot is wrong and
FindSnapshot has to be used independent from the API version.
I only tested this with VBox 4.0 and it worked, but it'll fail for
VBox < 4.0 I think, because of the use of GetSnapshot.
As FindSnapshot is available on all VBox versions this function should
probably use it unconditional and not fallback to
vboxDomainSnapshotGetAll for version < 3.1. But as stated I didn't
test this yet.

This error message it wrong, in this branch you never tried to get the root.

While at it, this error code is wrong, it should be VIR_ERR_NO_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT.
Therefore, I suggest this diff on top of this patch to fix the
mentioned problems.
ACK, with this diff applied.
