Experimentally there seems to be a 1024 byte limit on the size of the extra parameter to xm create (shades of csh!).
Before I dig in to the code, I'm thought I'd check if this a limit in xm or a more fundamental limit in the Xen guest interface. I can imagine a hard limit of a page in the latter case, but that would be a lot better than 1024. 

Thanks
Mick
