Thanks. It looks like that helped. The VM creation no more prints any
error (about creating terminals, previously) when it returns the shell
prompt. 'xl list' lists a guest by name 'guest'. However, when I execute
'xl console guest', the command goes dead; there are no verbose logs
even if I pass -vvv to xl.

It's almost the same effect if I run the command 'xl -vvv create
guest.cfg -c', that it appears stuck and doesn't return prompt.
