   I assume we don't need to check here for (xendConfigVersion >= 3) because
that construct positively never happened before.

  Obviously the SEXPR contains more data, but the only one we used to export
is the port number (which we have to extract in different way), do we want to
make those extra informations about the IP listening and password part of
the dumped XML ? I guess the answer is no because the XML is provided to
non-root users via the proxy and this is a security information leak, right ?

  Could we potentially have both sdl and vnc ? I'm wondering why this need to
be limited it xendConfigVersion < 3 ...

  But those are just side questions, feel free to commit,
