xm console currently goes to the hvm domain's serial port, which closely 
mirrors the behaviour for PV domains.

There's been talk about getting the monitor to talk over a unix domain socket, 
which would make it easy for management tools to talk to it.  Others know 
more about this than I...

Cheers,
