I noticed today that a patch for libvirt to work with libxl from xen 4.2 
has been sent to the libvir-list 
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-November/msg01119.html

I did a bit of testing and got the F18 libvirt to build against xen 4.2 
(the patch needed some minor tweaks). I haven't tested if it actually 
works.
