While looking at libxl code I've found the following (it's at the end
of libxl__domain_build_info_setdefault):

/* Configuration fields shared between PVH and HVM. */
if (b_info->type != LIBXL_DOMAIN_TYPE_PV) {
    if (libxl__timer_mode_is_default(&b_info->timer_mode))
        b_info->timer_mode = LIBXL_TIMER_MODE_NO_DELAY_FOR_MISSED_TICKS;
...

Which means that in libxl the default timer mode is
no_delay_for_missed_ticks instead of delay_for_missed_ticks, so I'm
afraid you will have to fixup the xl.cfg change below.

Thanks, Roger.
