I don't think this is correct.

In particular, what about
   xl create /etc/xen/foo.cfg
   xl console foo
?

I think in this case xenconsole still needs to wait.

TBH I wonder if this means that
 [RFC PATCH 4/8] libxl: wait up to 5s in libxl_console_exec for xenconsoled
is actually wrong, despite my ack.

Ian.
