Through some internal review it slipped that serial list is only supported from Xen
>= 4.5 (see below). Also for folks seeing this patch, it should be noted that this
depends on a bug fix to have libxl_console_get_tty(...) correctly returning the tty
path (as opposed to always returning the first one).

This particular chunk needs to be surrounded with LIBXL_HAVE_BUILDINFO_SERIAL_LIST
(otherwise it would break compilation) and then warn the user that it's not supported
for Xen 4.4. Something like:

#ifdef LIBXL_HAVE_BUILDINFO_SERIAL_LIST
                if (VIR_ALLOC_N(b_info->u.hvm.serial_list, def->nserials + 1) <
                    0)
                    return -1;

                for (i = 0; i < def->nserials; i++) {
                    if (libxlMakeChrdevStr(def->serials[i],
                                           &b_info->u.hvm.serial_list[i]) < 0)
                    {
                        libxl_string_list_dispose(&b_info->u.hvm.serial_list);
                        return -1;
                    }
                }
                b_info->u.hvm.serial_list[i] = NULL;
#else
                virReportError(VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED,
                               "%s",
                               _("Only one serial device is supported by libxl"));
                return -1;		
#endif

It's probably worth setting alias before this if, since it's general to all serial types.
