Treat xenstore UUID for domU's like MAC addresses for virtual network
interfaces -- can be set by user in domU configuration, but is 
generated randomly by default.

[These are for pristine changeset 8627. I see no difference between
these and the results for changeset 8627 with this patch applied.]
