Try either
- xm -l domU_name > domU_config.sxp

or (in the case of xend-managed domUs)

- virsh domuuid domU_name
- copy /var/lib/xend/domains/<uuid_from_first_step>/config.sxp, store
it on your SVN archive

Either way, you'd get new (sxp-style) domU config file. If you have a
recent-enough libvirt, you might be able to do this

- virsh dumpxml domU_name > domU_name.xml
- virsh domxml-to-native xen-xm domU_name.xml

... which should give you old-style xen config file
