We have had an issue here where the "request-abs-pointer" key is appearing in
XenStore _after_ the backend has gone to the Connected state. Qemu xenfb.c
checks for this key in the "connect()" callback, causing it to miss the key and
default to relative coordinates.

This could be a problem specific to our display server, and it only happens
sometimes. But we have been carrying the patch below in our xenfb.c. It makes
sense to respond to a direct watch on the key itself instead of looking for it
at a state change. This may be suitable for upstream to Qemu.
I also note that the check in Qemu was previously made even before the
connected state. It was changed in July, see:
