Generally, functions which return malloc'd strings should be typed as 'char *', not 'const char *', to make it obvious that the caller is responsible to free things. free(const char *) fails to compile, and although we have a cast embedded in VIR_FREE to work around poor code that frees const char *, it's better to not rely on that hack.
