Doesn't this mean that if libxl__get_domid() fails,
libxl__need_xenpv_qemu() will effectively return "true"?

I realize this is a bug in the existing code but there's no need to be
bug-for-bug compatible here. :-)

Maybe add an 'rc' variable, and make this:

rc = libxl__get_domid();
if(rc) goto out;

Other than that, looks good to me.
