Are you starting xend at boot?

In that case you should add two more checks for the existance of
static-max and freemem-slack, printing a warning if only one or two of
the nodes are missing (because this state shouldn't be possible if the
user is only using libxl/xl).
If some nodes are missing, we should only write those nodes to xenstore
without overwriting the informations that are already there.
