Soon libguestfs will prevent you from using large stack allocations.
This is easy to fix. See:

This one looks OK.

As discussed, this shouldn't be a FileOut API at all. It should
return a list of structs (RStructList).
If the output could be very large then we may need to split it into an
internal API, but let's not worry about that right now.
