PyList_SET_ITEM is just an optimized version of PyList_SetItem that doesn't do any error checking or attempt to release an object already present in the slot. It is ok to use here, as we are sure the rv list is free when we fill it with model names. I think there are other cases in libvirt-override.c where we can replace PyList_SetItem with PyList_SET_ITEM without any harm.
