format string mismatch.  You probably wanted to include ", error" at the
end of the arg list, to match the trailing %d.

If this gets by gcc -Wformat then virStorageReportError needs the usual
__attribute__((printf business, too.

BTW, I've seen many cases where a diagnostic includes both
the string, strerrno(error), and the %d-formatted errno value.
Does anyone know why these diagnostics include the actual errno value?
