I've just realized that there's a drawback with this implementation,
domains that are closed from inside the VM (a typical "shutdown -h
now") do not trigger the launch of hotplug scripts, since libxl is not
running and is not aware that the domain has powered off. Don't know
the best way to solve this issue, that doesn't take us back to having
a separate daemon that monitors xenstore states (or udev on Linux).

Regards, Roger.
