There's something funky here:

$ sudo ./tools/virsh --connect qemu:///system
Welcome to lt-virsh, the virtualization interactive terminal.

Type:  'help' for help with commands
       'quit' to quit

virsh # connect test:///default
error: Reconnected to the hypervisor

virsh # list --all
 Id    Name                           State
----------------------------------------------------
 1     test                           running


It prints an error, but seems to succeed
