So looking again at
tools/hotplug/Linux/systemd/var-lib-xenstored.mount.in it seems that it
happens to work for me because XENSTORED_MOUNT_CTX is set within that
file. So if something happens to need a different value for
XENSTORED_MOUNT_CTX it has to be provided in the to-be-created config
file: EnvironmentFile=-@CONFIG_DIR@/@CONFIG_LEAF_DIR@/xenstored
This config file is not part of xen. 

Does the current state of xen-4.5 (like "make rpmball") not work out of
the box on Fedora or anything that uses selinux? If thats the case it
should probably be covered in the INSTALL file.
