That's a bit grotty as I regularly use the same /etc/xen files under
both 32 and 64 bit. Having the path in the example file isn't nice
anyhow.

I think I'd prefer that we have a search path for such helper files. At
the very least the parameter shuld have a sensible default such that it
appears commetned out in the example.
