I have changed xenstored to remove /local when it starts, and I have changed
Xend to ignore the maxmem and memory settings for Dom 0 when _it_ starts.
These two things together should be sufficient to ensure that stale data are
not used, while preserving the contents of /tools, /vm etc.  This should solve
your problem.
