Well OK, but aren't you going to be coming back later to eliminate global variables which are actually per-VM?

Or is that the point, because *then* the conflicting name will actually matter?

Eh I wasn't thinking about running 2 Xen VMs in the same QEMU process,
but this is a good test case. I was thinking of running a Xen guest VM
and another TCG VM in the same process.

So IIUC xen_memory should be part of PCMachineState.
