This looks plausible. Although I'm not 100% sure that the spaces are

It's all very complicated (much more so than it needs to be). Most of
the messing about is done by xend and by the hotplug script run by

The xenstore key is supposed to be done by the xend script, not
qemu-ifup. And anyway the xenstore key is not relevant to the
operation of qemu. I think xend is hanging up on itself.
