cloning to rhel

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1002383 +++

Description of problem:
In function libvirt_lxc_virDomainLxcOpenNamespace, the fdlist gotten by virDomainLxcOpenNamespace was converted to a Python List, which is initiated by PyList_New with a size of fdlist. Then each fd from fdlist is append to the Python List, which will make the python list size double of the fdlist length.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.0.2

How reproducible:
make a gdb debug

Steps to Reproduce:
1. write a python program to call libvirt_lxc.lxcOpenNamespace and set a pdb breakpoint.
2. gdb attach to the python process.
3. Then through gdb you will see the whole process Just as Actual results show.

Actual results:
