Xenenum is one of the more simple drivers in the whole thing, so I have
my doubts.

I have just found a bug that would be brought on by higher traffic loads
at boot time. I'm just testing it now.

At some point I started a 'ping -q -f' to my test DomU, and then forgot
about it, and I was starting to go crazy because the test DomU would
lock up or BSoD shortly after boot, when it had been running perfectly
previously.
