[et-mgmt-tools] virtinst: acpi/apic == FALSE for Windows XP

Hi,
virtinst has:

"winxp":{ "label": "Microsoft Windows XP (x86)",
                  "acpi": False, "apic": False },

I couldn't find any reason for this in the hg logs and
  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=512439
states that Windows XP is working fine with acpi/apic enabled which has
the immediate advantage that poweroff via ACPI works as expected. 
So does it make sense to handle winxp the same win2k3?
Cheers,
 -- Guido
