That's one of the things I'd like to fix, or at least make it easy to
see whether it's working.

Along with the mentioned Puppet module I'm writing a set of acceptance
tests. These can be set to run periodically, or just be run manually.
They will spin up a virtual machine, run the Puppet code (to install
mirage), build a unix unikernel, build a xen unikernel, run the unix
unikernel and assert that all of that worked (ie. no errors) and that
the unikernel works (probably a simple http server). If you wanted to
run a shell script instead of run Puppet you should be able to drop
that in easily enough.

I have this partially working with Trusty now. Once I've got that
actually working I'll ship it and probably work on verifying Vivid
support.
