It used to work for me, that's what I was doing when I first implemented
this stuff.

IIRC it doesn't play especially well with the deaemonisation aspect for
some reason, but you can keep it in the foreground and/or disable the
monitoring bit (both on the cmdline) and it works ok, for at least bog
standard PV and HVM guests.

That was then of course.
