I think this is fixed by the patch below, which I have just applied.

xl: save domain config (userdata) under correct domid/uuid

Recent changes caused the domain config file to be saved under dom0's
filename in /var/lib/xen.  This was due to the config file being saved
before the domain was created and thus before the domid and uuid were
known.

Fix this by moving the saving code to after creation.

Also, change the "default" initialisation of domid in
xl_cmdimpl.c:create_domain to be domid=-1.  That provides a more
obviously wrong value than 0 (which refers to dom0) so that other bugs
of this kind would be more likely to show up.
