It is specific to the Fedora package. I traced it to the 
xen-initscript.patch file in the Fedora source. From xen-3.1.0-2.fc8 
onwards Fedora xend ignores the option passed to it and just does a start. 
It was from before I started doing things on the package, but idea seems 
to have been to strip out functions like stop, reload etc. and do them 
directly in the init script.
I don't think it is worth changing this much, but I think I will put back 
the status option to keep libvirt happy.
