I have chosen to use Xen libxenlight, libxenstore and libxenctrl directly through the 'ctypes' module from my Python 3 applications (I made some custom wrappers). It is not the most elegant solution and requires careful updates for any new major Xen version, but works and can sometimes provide more or better functionality than the Python modules included with the Xen distribution (they are not very actively maintained). Unfortunately, any upstream Xen Python utilities still depend on Python 2, so it may be hard to have a Xen system free of the old Python interpreter.
