I'd prefer this to use an if statement instead from the ternary operator, this looks really messy. I tried reworking this block, please look below.

Those two lines also aren't intuitive on the first read. last_error will be filled as virDomainSnapshotNumChildren has to fail or never be called.

I know it's copied code, but this error message doesn't look helpful. I think it's worth improving: "Failed to collect snapshot list" perhaps?

I had a very hard time parsing the code flow in this block, I'd rewrite this block as follows:
    /* This is the interface available in 0.9.12 and earlier,
     * including fallbacks to 0.9.4 and earlier.  */
    if (from) {
        if (!(fromname = virDomainSnapshotGetName(from))) {
            vshError(ctl, "%s", _("Could not get snapshot name"));
            goto cleanup;
        }

        descendants = (flags & VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_LIST_DESCENDANTS) != 0;

        if (tree)
            flags |= VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_LIST_DESCENDANTS;

        /* try new API at first */
        if (!ctl->useSnapshotOld &&
           (count = virDomainSnapshotNumChildren(from, flags)) < 0 &&
            last_error && last_error->code == VIR_ERR_NO_SUPPORT) {
            /* We can emulate --from.  */
            /* XXX can we also emulate --leaves? */
            virFreeError(last_error);
            lastError = NULL;
            ctl->useSnapshotOld = true;
            flags &= ~VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_LIST_DESCENDANTS;
        }

        if (tree && count >= 0)
            count++;
    }

    /* fallback to old API */
    if (count < 0)  {
        count = virDomainSnapshotNum(dom, flags);

        /* Fall back to simulation if --roots was unsupported. */
        /* XXX can we also emulate --leaves? */
        if (!from && count < 0 &&
            last_error->code == VIR_ERR_INVALID_ARG &&
            (flags & VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_LIST_ROOTS)) {
            virFreeError(last_error);
            last_error = NULL;
            roots = true;
            flags &= ~VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_LIST_ROOTS;
            count = virDomainSnapshotNum(dom, flags);
        }
    }

    if (count < 0) {
        if (!last_error)
            vshError(ctl, _("Failed to collect snapshot list"));
        goto cleanup;
    }

This one was really though to review. As this is just code movement and your tweaks to use the new structs
look correct I'm fine if you push it without change.
