When a user calls to virDomain{Attach,Detach,Update}DeviceFlags() with

an old Xen hypervisor (such as RHEL-5) xend_internal driver reports:

     Xend version does not support modifying persistent config

which is pretty confusing since no-one requested to modify persistent
config.

Hmm - given the recent discussion on vcpus (which is probably what made you look at this, right?)...

Should we always error out if _LIVE and inactive, or should we special-case _CONFIG|_LIVE by silently ignoring the _LIVE flag on inactive domains?
