You didn't answer that part.  Really, my only concern is about having
things tested.  Isn't it possible for instance to just merge the backend
core (and console/xenfb updates) in Ian's tree first for a start?  As
Markus and I said, it looked sane.  Then you can push your code to qemu,
I guess that could be fine, as you said xen will not need to use e.g.
the block and net backends.
