Comment 5 Arik 2014-03-11 14:02:10 UTC 
I managed to reproduce it and it seems that the guest crashes when taking snapshot with memory for a guest with no OS installed.
The log files of libvirt & qemu were attached.

libvirt: 1.1.3.2
qemu-kvm: 1.6.1
(fedora 19)
Comment 6 Cole Robinson 2016-04-10 18:05:52 UTC 
guest crashes are likely qemu issues, which I suspect in this case is long since fixed. if anyone is still hitting issues, please file a bug against your distro's qemu version
