virsh didn't call virInitialize(), which (among other things) initializes virLastErr thread local variable. As a result of that, virsh could just segfault in virEventRegisterDefaultImpl() since that is the first call that touches (resets) virLastErr. I have no idea what lucky coincidence made this bug visible but I was able to reproduce it in 100% cases but only in one specific environment which included building in sandbox.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
