Thanks for spotting that. Will fix that with probably the next minor
release of xen-tools.

Interestingly the checkbashisms script doesn't yet catch that one.

I filed a wishlist bug against checkbashisms to find that kind of issues
in the future, too: http://bugs.debian.org/610465

                Regards, Axel
