I'm not sure about the IPRINTF, but if you build the tools with debug=y
passed to the make command, the DPRINTFs go to

/var/lib/xen/xend-debug.log

I found uncommenting the following in tools/libxc/Makefile , and
rebuilding (cd tools; make debug=y ) very useful when debugging as it
let me attach with gdb to the xend python process and define break
points in the libxc code.

# Define this to make it possible to run valgrind on code linked with
# these
# libraries.
CFLAGS   += -DVALGRIND -O0 -ggdb3
