I don't really know how to do that exactly; you have to look at where 
the /local/domain/<domid>/ entry get created, and put an explicit 
setperm there.

However I think changing your script in a domU is the way forward. there 
are other place in xenstore (have a look at maybe /vm/<uuid>/ and 
/local/domain/<domid>/*/ ) that are still writable.
