Really strange. Is xen configured as a backend (ie. ./configure --without-xen or something like that?) You can also run with debugging enabled, if you configured that: LIBVIRT_DEBUG=1 virsh which will print a lot more useful info. (We should really enable debugging support in configure by default ...)
