If you can get the changes into the main stream NetBSD tree that
would be great. It would would set a useful precedent for
persuading Linus to do the same in 2.6...

Having the netbsd config file and any extra build tools in the
Xen tree would seem sensible.

If it looked like there was a problem getting the kernel mods
into the netbsd tree we could either put a patch or 'sparse tree'
in the Xen tree in the meantime.
