[et-mgmt-tools] virt-install defaults to apic on xen: why?

It seems that virt-install 300.3 on xen (HVM) defaults to enabling the 
apic, even if there is only a single vcpu. Does anyone know why this is 
the default? It seems that there is a performance penalty when the apic 
is enabled, so why was this done?
