What's missing is the domid from Dom0, not the domid of the guest. You
are missing an entry like:

/local/domain/0/domid = "0"

You need to update your init scripts, since commit
02ebea7768fe723deaa56c2cfcb860874544b47d Dom0 domid is written to
xenstore by xencommons init script, and libxl will fail to work properly
if the domid of Dom0 is not found.
