The problem seems to be that the way that qemu is configured for
stubdom compilation doesn't take account of the fact that stubdom
doesn't use any of the build host libraries or headers.

So the configure script detects libvdeplug.h and sets CONFIG_VDE even
though actually that's not available in minios.  (The stubdom
makefiles pass -nostdinc, correctly.)  I think it's a mistake that the
stubdom qemu runs configure in that way, but the whole stubdom build
system is rather odd and I don't want to try to disentangle it
piecemeal.

Passing --disable-vde should fix the problem, and can be done from the
existing Makefile setup.  So can you try this patch to
xen-unstable.hg ?  I think this should solve the problem for you
(although you may need to start again with a fresh tree to get it to
take effect).

Thanks,
Ian.
