So I dug deeper and can alter the commit message to:

Commit id 'fa1420736' introduced virNetDaemonAddServerPostExec
and virNetDaemonAddServer; however, for the former when adding
@srv to the dmn->servers list, there was no corresponding virObjectRef
as there was in the latter.

Commit id '252610f7d' modified net server management to use a
hash table to store/manage the various servers and did not alter
the code to add the object reference.
