attached patch fixes generation of reloc.S and makes
xen boot out-of-the box since c/s 19146.
The output of AT&T UNIX and GNU od(1) are different.

Which (if any) of these versions of od is correct ?  The SuSv3
specification of od is quite comprehensive so it should be possible to
contrive a rune which doesn't need subsequent seddery.  Could you try
to do so ?

http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/od.html

says

"and the output from each of the transformations shall be separated by one or more <blank>s."

So both AT&T UNIX and GNU od(1) behaviours are correct and we have to deal with that. => Please apply the patch to -unstable, 4.1-testing, 4.0-testing and 3.4-testing.

Thanks,
Christoph
