It seems that xm save -c breaks PV guests when their address width
does not match that of domain 0. It looks to me like modify_returncode
is treating the guest VCPU context as native format, but honestly I
don't quite understand the purpose of vcpu_guest_context_any_t.c.

I suspect I'm missing something obvious about how the compat code is
supposed to work, but at any rate, the attached patch fixes things for
me.
