As was reported on IRC and found by Dan Berrange, sometimes Xen event
handling could start to go wild and block processing of requests in the
daemon.
The fault at least on libvirt side is that we didn't filter out non
read/write event requests when asking for watches in the xenstore. The
provided patch seems to work for the person who reported the original
problem,
Daniel
