This guest XML would be expected to fail if the guest is running on a host that is using qemu w/o kvm acceleration:

     <vcpu placement='static' cpuset='0-1'>1</vcpu>

...as qemu does not support pinning when kvm isn't available. What's not clear to me is why the Ubuntu version would be adding this line since it sounds like master/kilo-3 is behaving correctly per the spec (only adding these lines where the user explicitly requests direct pinning of CPUs on the image or flavor [1]).
