I also found I had to explicitely use IMAGE_TARGET=bzImage, because
default value IMAGE_TARGET=vmlinuz was wrong.

Anyway, using pristine kernel source tarball is not enough. How can I
fetch just the xen dom0 patchset against it ? cloning the whole
linux-2.6.18-xen.hg repository is a bit overkill for me (beside the
additional constraints of preventing network access during build).
