TAB damage.  Please run 'make syntax-check' and fix that.

I'm wondering if we should reuse our post-XML-parse callbacks here,
rather than open-coding a machine check.  In other words, since we
already have code that knows how to do per-machine fixups to a domain
definition, we should be reusing those instead of open-coding duplicate
checks.  (Actually, domxml-from-native needs a LOT of TLC, there's much
more wrong with it, even on non-pseries machines, than what you are
trying to patch).
