I had a problem with the GDB-server crashing on connections in

I looked at this a couple weeks ago, and I think the real problem is
that the CR registers are never updated in Xen's vcpu structure, and so
xc_vcpu_getcontext() doesn't get them either. So Xen should be fixed; we
shouldn't add workarounds to userland.
I think that the CR registers are never changed during the life of a PV
domain. I think all that's needed is for some sane values to be set
during domain creation and things start working. I believe Ryan had a
patch that did this?
