yes...  but why are you not using the elf loader for Linux as well?  The
XenoGues format doesn't contain any additional information since the
0xc0000000 is in the elf header...

I think for NetBSD in domain0 I'll use the elf loader code to build an
elf->XenoGues translator...  Or would it be easy enough to add the elf
loader for domain0 as well?  I assume this is the original motivation for
the XenoGues format?
