Thanks for doing that. I guess I can stop looking at xen code for the
problem :)

Btw, the problem definitely exists for PV domains too, for me anyway.

I'm using 3.3-testing.hg.

Any suggestions as to where to go from here?

So far I have been through the dist/install directory and made sure that
there are no older files with the same name in different paths (eg if
xen installed in /usr/sbin but Debian installed in /sbin and the file
was still there for some reason)

Thanks again

James
