Hrm, I'm not sure this change was intentional and I don't recall a patch
which did this on purpose. Ideally xl list would remain somewhat human
readable even if it is also machine readable.

I wonder if this is yajl v1 vs v2 specific? For v1 libxl_yajl_gen_alloc
creates a yajl_gen_config with beautify = 1 and passes it to
yajl_gen_alloc.

For v2 however yajl_gen_alloc doesn't take such an option. It looks like
we are instead supposed to call yajl_gen_config with yajl_gen_beautify.
We probably also want to set yajl_gen_indent_string to "    " (although
that might be the default from my reading).

I don't have a yajl2 test system handy -- could you try that though?

Yes, setting yajl_gen_beautify (as in the attached patch) gets the xendomains script working again. I didn't try setting the spaces though that does indeed seem to be the default.
