Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] Xen 4.0.0 first release candidate
User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/12.23.0.091001
Hm, nothing recent looks especially likely to cause this. Maybe c/s 20767,
if the format string it modifies is still incorrect after the change. It
might be interesting to revert 20767 and 20762 and see if the problem still
occurs.
