[Xen-users] Why the need for "-f" with XL in Xen 4.2 rev-25467

Just out of annoyance more than curiosity, but ever since I started 
using Xen 4.2-unstable rev-25467, every time I try to run "sudo xl 
create <domu_config_file>", or "sudo xl reboot", or "sudo xl destroy", 
it always gives me this message:

"*xend is running, which prevents xl from working correctly.
If you still want to force the execution of xl please use the -f option*"

I am now forced to use the "-f" option anytime i am using the xl 
toolstack. It never used to be that way going back to Xen 4.2-unstable 
rev-25459. I was reading something about this a while ago on the 
Xen-devel list, but forget what.

SOOO, any logical reason for the need to use the FORCE option every time 
you run the XL command? AND assuming it is not something on my setup 
that is causing it, will it always stay like this in future revisions?

Thank you for any enlightening
