So, with this patch, oxenstord does not start for me.

Systemd says this (sorry, it's not the full output.. I don't have it
right now, but can produce it):

systemctl status xenstored
 ...
 Active: failed (Result: protocol) since Thu 2018-02-08 17:47:56 CET; 12min ago
 ...
 Feb 08 17:47:56 Zhaman systemd[1]: xenstored.service: Failed with result 
'protocol'.

Just running oxenstored from command line seems to exits with 0, but
there's not an oxenstored process running.

Getting rid of what is now commit "make xen ocaml safe-strings
compliant" (df1e4c6e7f8892e950433ff33c215df0cd7b30f7), things work
again for me.

Regards,
Dario

PS. There has been a v2 of this patch, I think, but I don't have in my
emails any longer, so I'm replying to this one.
