Fixed in upstream commit:

commit 1d4f41fdbeb13d7860dec9ad17843b494fbb41b7
Author: Martin Kletzander <mkletzan@redhat.com>
Date:   Wed Nov 21 16:31:51 2012 +0100

    virsh: Rewrite cmdDomDisplay
    
    Just a little rewrite of the cmdDomDisplay function to make it
    consistent and hopefully more readable.  This also fixes a problem
    with password not being displayed for vnc even with the
    "--include-password" option.
