We interpret port values as signed int (convert them from char *),

we accept it as valid, however there's an 'unknown cause' error raised later.
This error is only accidental because we return the port value in the return 
code.
This patch adds just a minor tweak to the already existing check so we
reject negative values the same way as we reject non-numerical strings.

Won't this still allow wraparound (an extremely large negative input
that gets parsed as positive)?  Wouldn't it be better to switch to
virStrToLong_uip to force a positive number parse?


No it won't, virStrToLong_*() functions handle this properly.  We use
this parsing for other integers as well.  I don't know what I would do
if our *integer* variant isn't good for parsing *integers* ;-)

So I'd say ACK from my POV.
