  actually the macro should use the normal logging facilities, so
I intend to clean this up.

  Well for example the code was using gethostbyname which is deprecated
not reentrant and the code was leaking the socket if the call failed
I cleaned this up and switched to getaddrinfo() as other parts of
libvirt code.
  Please make sure to run "make syntax-check" before sending a patch
in the future, thank in advance !

  Anyway the modified patch is now commited. Please try the code
as I modified the socket connection handling,

Daniel
