You can set XENSTORED_TRACE in /usr/sbin/xend's environment causing it
to add the --trace-file option to the invocation of xenstored.  You'll
need to do this in your boot script because after restarting
xenstored, the backends won't notice any new changes anymore.

I only removed the ones which were not fatal because I was under the
impression initally that adding an error node does indicate a final
error after which it would be up to a control tool to sort out the
failure or report it.
