We need to get one of these approaches checked into the main tree, lest
someon writes a third.
The wrapper program is pretty unavoidable as the 'legacy' loaders only
support two modules and we potentially need three. Having both the xen
and kernel command line's configurable via a '--' hack seems sane.
Michael, Tim: Please can you try and agree on a way forward.
Thanks,
Ian
