I've requested this, every time a XenSource sales representative called in.
The only answer i've got so long is, that
        a) we're not the first requesting a Windows PV driver
        b) he's unable to provide one
        c) the request is reported to the team leader...

Well, this was in the days before citrix, maybe there'll be a PV driver
become available in the future, but I don't think so.
