The attached patch exposes the exception thrown by xen.lowlevel.xc as the type xen.lowlevel.xc.Error which is an exception that inherits from RuntimeError.

I only had a few minutes this morning so I didn't get to xen.lowlevel.xs but hopefully someone else can use this as a guide on what needs to be done. If noone else gets to it, I'll be able to submit another one in about a week.

I've only done very basic testing but I don't expect that this should break anything...

Regards,

Anthony Liguori
