Just made a comparison between xenU_defconfig_x86_32 and xen0_defconfig_x86_32. 
It seems that whole "Character devices" category is de-selected, which should 
have the effect to disable CONFIG_VT for xenU.

Actually what confusing me is how to support different configuration file 
copied to xen0_defconfig_ia64 automatically when build. Current 
xen0_defconfig_ia64 is based on zx box configuration, and I have to copy one 
for tiger manually to override that file before build. However I didn't find 
easy way to pass into such machvec information and let it automate. Can anyone 
help with an idea?

Thanks,
Kevin
