NACK to this addition. Callers have absolutely no business accessing
'errno' for any function which uses libvirt error reporting - we make
no guarnatees that the value will be preserved by any cleanup code in
such methods. If callers want to check errno values they should do this:

  virErrorPtr err = virGetLastError()
  if (err &&
      err->code == VIR_ERR_SYSTEM_ERROR &&
      err->int1 == ENOSYS)
     ....

Daniel
