Or even just reply the data into the main libvirtd.log (ie. use existing
virLog functionality, rather than creating a new file), since ideally
the log will be relatively sparse: in my case, it would be just one
message stating that libxl is not available, at which point the libxl
driver no longer does anything else during the life of libvirtd.
