I'm seeing this failure trying to start xend:

==> xend-debug.log <==
Xend started at Wed Nov  7 09:30:01 2007.
sysctl operation failed -- need to rebuild the user-space tool set?
Exception starting xend: (13, 'Permission denied')

Anybody know what might be the problem here?  I'm sure the build is
good and matches the running hypervisor and kernel, which are csets
ia64/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg-210 and ia64/xen-unstable.hg-16314

Thanks,
Aron
