We plan to release within a week. Really this needs to be fixed by end of
Monday. Seems to me we can knock up something suitable in that timeframe
though.

Daniel: Could we simply make xoptions.netback_type = None by default (for
all but Solaris) instead of "netfront"? Then we could put:
 if not typ:
    typ = xoptions.netback_type

Back in as is and it'd do the right thing?
