Ah :-) Well that's LGPL so we can probably reuse pieces of it. But I don't feel too confident relying on an installed Xen library at this point.
FYI, in case people didn't realize we can /use/ code from libxenstat. We can't link it though, because libxenstat links to libxc and thus the result becomes GPL.
Ugh, yes. It's a been a long long time since Ian last promised to look at relicensing libxc sensibly. Oh well.
Re-licensing wouldn't help us either. Because it would mean libvirt could only be used with new Xen releases, not old ones & we need to support the entire 3.x series really.
