I'm curious why libxc isn't good enough. Is the emphasis here on "simpler"? 
From what I've seen of it so far, I'm not sure I'd call libxc overly 
complicated...

The reason I'm interested is that right now the PPC port is carrying some 
libxc hacks for domain creation, which already have caused merge conflicts. 
There's no pressing need for us to throw out our hacks at the moment, but 
longer term if it's difficult for us to fit into libxc then maybe libvir 
would be a better fit.
