Instead of using bool fixback, I'd set tmpserver as NULL here...

s/alocate/allocate/ - but see below, as I don't think you need this comment.

No need to raise OOM error here - all callers of xmlSaveUri were already
raising their own OOM after a NULL return.

I'd just use virAsnprintf(&tmpserver, "[%s]", uri->server); none of this
need to call strlen, VIR_ALLOC_N, or snprintf.

...and check 'if (tmpserver)' here (that is, fixback is redundant with
whether tmpserver was assigned at this point).

I'm also a bit worried that we might regress if we don't add a syntax
check; can you look at adding a rule to cfg.mk that poisons xmlParseURI
and xmlSaveUri (wow, libxml2 really does have the awful URI vs. Uri in
its naming conventions), then exempt util/uri.c from the check as the
only file allowed to use them.
