Pasi, as I know it is not possible in Jeremy's kernel version
under i386 arch (please look above). If I am wrong please correct me.
Mainline kernel version under i386 arch with CONFIG_XEN, CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_MANUAL
and CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G compile without problem however, I do not tested it
as a PV guest (dom0 is not supported in this version).
Daniel
