I am OK with this in principle but I would have preferred the prep
work of passing libxl__domain_build_state* through to more places to
be split out into its own patch.

As it is it's not easy to see the wood for the trees.  If we weren't
in the freeze I would probably just shrug and ack it but I think a bit
more care is needed at this stage.

Would you mind splitting the patch in two, the first of which is "no
intended functional change" ?

Thanks,
Ian.
