Xen 4.0.x contains some "tech preview" libxenlight bits, but it is buggy
and missing quite a bit of functionality. Xen 4.1.0 is the first release
with a usable libxenlight IMO. Also, the API changed quite a bit between
Xen 4.0 and 4.1 and I have not attempted to make the libxl driver work
with the preview libxenlight.

Regards,
Jim
