For those not following in the bug, the libxl driver executes
'/usr/sbin/xend status' and refuses to load it xend is running. The
problem here is that the status check causes xend to start!
Ok, that sounds strange, but it is also the only reasonable explanation.
I'll try to have a look and confirm this
I can't
reproduce the issue, so perhaps it is specific to the fedora packages.
I guess it can well be. I'll investigate this and report back to both
the list and the bug.

Since checking xend status starts the service and returns that it is
running, the driver won't load :).
Yep, now it makes sense. :-)
Thanks a lot for your time and Regards,
