If we hit this early return, then *pgconf was never assigned...

but here, gconf is uninitialized,

which means we can goto out with it uninitialized...

...vs. here where we can goto out with it initialized.

So whatever solution you use to plug the leak must be careful to not
free uninitialized memory.  Easiest solution - initialize gconf to NULL
before qemu_gluster_parseuri (or else go back to a *gconf parameter
rather than **pgconf).
