I've become confused about exactly what changes Jim's patch entails,
since he's backing stuff out too, but it does seem like it.

Theoretically, if we made "xm create" domains have an XML file too, we
wouldn't ever need /vm right?

Anyway, seems like we need a simple working fix for 3.1 series, even if
there's larger surgery done.
