To see the direction I am going to I attached the first draft version of my upcoming multicore patch. This uses the interface provided by libxl_cpuid_parse_config(). IMHO this is a very readable and maintainable approach, and it can be overridden by cpuid lines (or forced again later by being called after the cpuid= parsing).
Now actually attached.

Regards,
Andre.
