I am not sure if I am allowed to vote here but...

I guess the SSVM has been built using HVM instead of PV?  If the SSVM is 
PV, it should sync domU -> dom0. It might also require some hotfixes on 
the XenServer side if you are using XS 6.0.2 (hotfix 18) that addresses 
some clock drift issues. Because of the potential impact on other APIs 
(swift?), I would say: -1.
