Well, creating the disk snapshot seems to work. It's just that qemu
seems to be confused to get a snapshot without VM state when you try to
loadvm the snapshot in a VM. However, the same seems to apply if you use
savevm with two qcow2 images and later try to loadvm from the second
image where no VM state is written to.

So it's not only broken because of qemu snapshot -c but a more general
problem. If "then don't do that" is enough for now, I can submit my
current patch for inclusion.
