All right, I cut this patch. There's a function to clone a context, and
there's a function to clone a context and open a new xenstore handle.
And there are the 'discard' counterparts.
Ack/Nack them and I'll resubmit the remaining two patches still in the
pipeline.
Thanks for reviewing everything else

Actually I missed one thing: I think you should move
clone.xsh = xs_daemon_open();
into libxl_clone_context and
xs_daemon_close(clone.xsh);
into libxl_discard_cloned_context.
The rest is fine, thanks for finding and fixing this bug!

Provide a function to clone a context. This is necessary
because simply copying the structs will eventually
corrup the GC: maxsize is updated in the cloned context
but not in the originating, yet they have the same array
of referenced pointers alloc_ptrs.
