Hi,

attach patch avoids throwing away the first cmdline parameter.
It contains the dom0 kernel filename.

On NetBSD, this is used to set sysctl.booted_kernel
This sysctl entry is used by the kvm framework
(http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi?kvm+3+NetBSD-current)
and savecore (http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi?savecore+8+NetBSD-current).
The kvm framework is used by almost all system utilities.

Signed-off-by: Christoph Egger <Christoph.Egger@xxxxxxx>
