Jim, what do you think? e.g. something like the following untested (but pretty obvious[0]) patch. I'm currently rebuilding Debian's libvirt package with this included so I can give it a go. Ian.

Specifying an explicit path to pygrub (e.g. BINDIR "/pygrub") only works if Xen and libvirt happen to be installed to the same prefix. A more flexible approach is to simply specify "pygrub" which will cause libxl to use the correct path which it knows (since it is built with the same prefix as pygrub). This is particular problematic in the Debian packaging, since the Debian Xen package relocates pygrub into a libexec dir, however I think this change makes sense upstream.
