Nice to have tools that help us catch bugs.

VIR_ERROR already appends __func__ to the resulting message.  This
should be:

VIR_ERROR("%s", _("hash lookup resulted in NULL pointer"));

And again, this should be:

VIR_ERROR(_("Lookup of value at index %u resulted in a NULL pointer"),
          cie->curValue);

ACK with those fixes; I'm okay if you push without posting a v2.
