Yep, definitely has to be an override function.

Cute typo fix.  Took me a while to spot it.

I'm not familiar enough with python to know if this does the right
thing, but I hope it does.  You got further than I did in my simple RFC :)

What happens if PyvirConnect_Get() fails?  Can it return NULL?  While
virConnectListAllDomains happens to deal with NULL (by failing the API),
I can't help but wonder if we should be more careful here.  Then again,
that's probably a common problem in the python bindings, where you are
just copying from other clients doing the same.  I guess nothing needs
to change here.

Does libvirt_virDomainPtrWrap create a new object from scratch, or is it
taking a reference to doms[i]?  If the former, then we need to call
virDomainFree(doms[i]) unconditionally; if the latter, then we need to
set doms[i] to NULL on success.  [Looks like the latter.]

Wrong.  This leaks memory, of at least doms.  Instead, you need skip to:

a cleanup label here.

We already guaranteed doms was non-NULL and c_retval >= 0 if we get here.

Memory leak: you are missing a VIR_FREE(doms).

I think this control flow solves it:

    if (!(py_retval = PyList_New(c_retval)))
        goto cleanup;

    for (i = 0; i < c_retval; i++) {
        if (PyList_SetItem(py_retval, i,
                           libvirt_virDomainPtrWrap(doms[i])) < 0) {
            Py_DECREF(py_retval);
            py_retval = NULL;
            goto cleanup;
        }
        doms[i] = NULL;
    }

cleanup:
    for (i = 0; i < c_retval; i++)
        if (doms[i])
            virDomainFree(doms[i]);
    VIR_FREE(doms).
    return py_retval;
