The error "... but the cause is unknown" appeared for XMLs similar to
this:

 <disk type='file' device='cdrom'>
   <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
   <source file='/dev/zero'/>
   <target dev='sr0'/>
 </disk>

Notice unsupported disk type (for the driver), but also no address
specified. The first part is not a problem and we should not abort
immediately because of that, but the combination with the address
unknown was causing an unspecified error.

While fixing this, I added an error to one place where this return
value was not managed properly.
