Keir, we have been using this patch since May 8th on our internal trees,
and haven't seen any negative consequences. Jun's patch below fixes a
problem with a hang when performing an "xm destroy" on a windows guest.
We would like to see it go into the xen-unstable.hg tree, and
3.0-testing if you feel comfortable with it.
Thanks
Tom
