This is conceptually wrong IMHO, you are returning an error code that's 
not in libxl space from a libxl function (although due to the "return" 
above this is always going to be 0). I would just return 0 here, or add an 
"out" label, keep rc and set it in the error case above replacing the 
return with a goto out.
