Anthony,

   This looks to pretty significantly decrease the amount of memory
available to xen.  With it, I'm no longer able to boot a single 384MB
domU domain on a system with 1GB of memory (xminfo report 382MB
available).  Should the xenheap size be reduced, or are we fragmenting
memory somewhere with this?  Thanks,

        Alex
