Seems our responses crossed paths...  Maybe it'd be best to send a v3...

A couple of other nits I noted were the 2nd-4th arguments to virClassNew
for vboxDriverOnceInit weren't placed under the "virClass" first
argument (off by a space or two)

Also the finger twister uninitialize was typed as unintialize in a
comment and in the commit message as unitialize
