FWIW I'd be surprised if the upstream Xen developers would consider this
to be a stable/exported interface.

Is performance of "xm start" and "xm stop" really bounded by the time it
takes to fork the python process for xm? Seems unlikely to me. Similarly
if time to fork "xm list" is an issue then perhaps you are polling far
to frequently?
