I tried out the new domain builder on xen-ia64 with my ported mini-os
in big endian mode and the only change I had to do was to define a
second struct xc_dom_arch with the new guest type in xc_dom_ia64.c:
static struct xc_dom_arch xc_dom_arch_ia64_be = {
    .guest_type = "xen-3.0-ia64be",
    .page_shift = PAGE_SHIFT_IA64,
    .alloc_magic_pages = alloc_magic_pages,
    .start_info = start_info_ia64,
    .shared_info = shared_info_ia64,
    .vcpu = vcpu_ia64,
};
With some small patches in the ia64-hypervisor the image got loaded and 
startet. Good work ;-).
Thanks.

Dietmar.
