Yep, fortunately we have pretty good test coverage of the XML parsing &
formatting for Xen drivers, so it should catch most of the problems :-)

Yep, I added a 'sexpr_node_copy' convenience method to catch OOM conditions
more easily.

That's a nice idea - I'll cook up a patch to do add a VIR_STRDUP
later.

The reason the <graphics> and <input> elements are added here
is because of a bug in the test suite - the sexpr2xmldatatest.c
was setting the wrong xendConfigVersion for this particular
test case, so previously it missed the VNC config. Fixing the
test suite meant I had to add in the <graphics> elements.
The <clock> stuf is a new feature - we previously only tracked
the clock setting for HVM guests. Paravirt guests are automatically
synced to UTC, so adding this new element is OK here.
You are correct that we are removing <script> element here, but
I have only done this for the <interface type='bridge'>. It does
not really make sense to customize the script for bringing up an
interface, because then its not really bridging in the sense thta
the libvirt XML describes. THe script parameter is still used for
the generic network config with <interface type='ethernet'>, but
I don't think I have a test case for that.

Yep, I decided we should be explicit and always add the
<os> block even if we have a bootloader, so people don't
need to special case the paravirt guest config in this
area.

Yes, if there is no explicit 'maxmem' setting, we set it based
on the 'memory' value, and vica-verca. So when outputting the
XML we will always have both elements.

The parser is a little more fussy here - it expects either the single
string 'all', or a list of models. It's not letting you mix a list of
strings and 'all' at the same time. I will look at fixing this again.

In this case, it would previously just ignore those bogus values, but
the parser now rejects them explicitly. The real world, if you had a
Xen config with a bogus 'idontexist' you'd get a nice error message
when dumping the XML
"unexpected sound model idontexist"
at lesat you would if I had remembered to call __virRaiseError(), which
I notice I missed in this particular example. So I'll fix that bit.
