I think you are mis-understanding the goal of bug 278931. We were *not* attempting to remove these errors messages, rather we added details about the filename and line number containing the error. This allows the admin to identify and delete the bogus non-config file in /etc/xen. These errors you see are thus expected & correct. Delete the files it is complaining about - ie test123 and virtinst-test.sh
