I tried  changing all the config options in that category
from =y to =n and make oldconfig just returns them to =y.
Does removing the lines altogether have a different result?

I've been thinking that linux/arch/ia64/defconfig might
work for both HP and tiger4, but since it uses many modules,
I have been waiting to try it until the boot-dom0-with-initrd
works (RHEL4).

Perhaps just changing all the =m to =y in linux/arch/ia64/defconfig
will work for a xen0_defconfig_ia64 for both HP and tiger4?
