Hot Damn.

I got the xen-tip/next sources and am using the result as my Dom0.  It 
is from 2.6.30-r6; the xen-tip/master is rc3.
The WinXP SP3 installer booted right up!  Ian's work must have been 
merged into xen-tip/next already.
I'm at the "Welcome to Setup" screen right now.

I am so excited!  I have NEVER been so happy to run Windoze(TM).

I've been running the unstable Dom0 for two or three weeks now, and 
haven't had any trouble at all with Linux itself.
I'll try BeOS 5 Pro next.  That one's a bastard to virtualize.
