No changes in the last hour :-), though I just discovered a
recent changeset in xen-unstable has badly broken the
xen-unstable build (for Xen/ia64) :-(

The core libxc, xenstore, and drivers have changed dramatically
in the last 2-3 weeks and multiple domains in Xen/ia64 have not
kept up.

Yes please go ahead and send the patch(es).

That should be fine.  The kernel built from -xenU should be
much smaller because very few devices will need to be configured,
but I haven't gotten around to generating one for Xen/ia64.

I believe Kevin will be looking at this when he returns from
vacation.   As long as your updated SMP patch doesn't break the
uniprocessor boot of domain0, let's go ahead and start
integrating it into tip.

Thanks,
Dan
