Oh, I see.  I had missed this before when we discussed what functions 
should be moved.  Any function that is run within the guest should also 
be moved.

So the following should be moved to 
libvirt-cim/lib/XenKvmLib/xm_virt_util.p:

  processors_count()
  memory_count()
  network_macs()

I had originally thought these were running on the host, not within the 
guest.  Sorry for the confusion!
