Ok, can do that change.

Other code uses unsigned int when dealing with vcpus AFAICS, but sure I can change it.

Then syntax-check must be fixed.

I was expecting the worst when double checking with the glib docs, and was not disappointed. "uses its own allocator", "pair g_free with g_new*" and the like.

Since libxl does not use glib, and since it does not provide its own allocation function for that memory area, I decided to pair libxl's plain free() with this plain malloc(). Hence the comment.
