Apologies -- we're aware of this but haven't had time to do a
fix. The dom0_op returns ENOMEM, but somewhere along the line
this error code is getting dropped. We should probably hack the
python-C interface to generate an exception rather than return an
error code.

Patches gratefully received ;-)

Cheers,
Ian
