can you please also attach libvirt logs?
Created attachment 873148 [details] libvirt's log

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)
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
