Yes.
And there's an invisible firstboot at the tail end of the V2V to
handle all this, right? If so, what if that minimal viostor hack
was in the correct control set, but then all the complete driver
stuff somehow ended up in the wrong control set?
Fairly sure this shouldn't happen, or if it did it'd be a gross bug in
the viostor installer.
You can use virt-inspector to find the current control set for a
Windows guest (requires libguestfs >= 1.10).

virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines. Boot with a
live CD or over the network (PXE) and turn machines into Xen guests.
