No.  libxl migration v2 will not be affecting the behaviour here.

The only reasonable way I see this being fixed is for the libxl json
blob to contain the correct size of the VM, and for
libxl_domain_create() to make an appropriately sized VM in the first place.

One extension which libxl migration v2 will bring is the ability to send
a new json blob later in the stream, but such a fix still requires the
json blob to have the correct size in it.
