Patches 3 - 9 look OK.  Rather than take 1 and 2 directly, I've reworked that
bit of the build system as we discussed, so that xm-test.xensource.com will
host a known-good version of the buildroot source.  I've also changed things
so that the initrd gets the architecture in the name, so that make existing
continues to work (your patches don't add "make existing" support for PPC,
AFAIK).

I'll reply to patch 10 in a sec.

I'll push all these things when the new ramdisks are built and uploaded --
today, hopefully.

xm-test has deserved its One Point Oh for a long time now, so I'll be bumping
the version number too.

Thanks for all your hard work,

Ewan.
