There is a point I'd like to make about the results of xm-test on
x86_64.  the following is a snippet of David's hs20.1.sles9-x86_64
report:

> FAIL: 04_memset_smallmem_pos Console run-away (exceeded 8192 bytes)

This is a specific test for ballooning a DomU's memory down to <16MB,
which causes a kernel explosion.  This is Bugzilla bug #145.

All the rest of the tests fail with a message like:

> FAIL: 03_memset_random_pos Console didn't respond

This is because the crashing DomU from the 04_memset_smallmem_pos test
is stuck in an endless console-spew mode, which seems to cause a DoS
effect on the console system for all other domains.
