I could still 'xm list' my running domains, but trying to 'xm destroy' the dead domain left xm hanging, and xend unresponsive. The only way to get xend running again was by booting the machine.


That shouldn't happen, but I'm not totally surprised. We know xend needs
to be a bit more defensive -- its one of the reasons for the planned
rewrite.

Actually this a bit worse that I first thought, even a normal domU sitting in a tight loop seems immune to destruction :-(
