I haven't looked at the patch, but it sounds like it would want
to do some pretty gross stuff.
As a quick way to apply the patch, you might want to take a look
at the fakei386xen script in tools/misc. It basically renames
arch xen to arch i386 so the patch without modification. I wrote
it to enable me to build an external module supplied with a very
dumb Makefile.
