    Yes, the patch for the Xen domain builder to boot a bzImage using the 
    Linux boot protocol rather than the Xen one.  Ian's patch will extract 
    the ELF file from the bzImage, but still boot it by finding the Xen 
    entrypoint in the notes, with %esi pointing to the Xen start_info rather 
    than the boot_params (unless I'm missing something).
