I was not sure about where to put the value. So
/libxl/$domid/dm-version is good to me.

This is magic ! :-)
This pointer was not used in this functions, but still given to
libxl__build_post() (and written in xenstore to /local/domain).
My other option from this function was to write the value in /vm/
which does not seams to be a good place.

I just want to give libxl the ability to run after an update. But it's
maybe better to print and return an error, so that will give a chance
to the user to update is xenstore :). (or use the tool that created
the domain).
