We have to sort how to setup/drop the buildd XEN image before/after each build. This is a security requirement to avoid the image contaminations during builds.

setup/drop Xen buildd will be done via resuming an WriteOnCopy Image that will be triggered via a blocking procedure plugged on a SSH account on the xen-host in question.
