RE: [Xen-ia64-devel] xen-ia64-unstable.hg now up to date. Pleasepull/test

["Tian, Kevin" <kevin.tian@xxxxxxxxx>]

Great, and thanks Dan for pulling extra time to bring it up. We've
verified all CONFIG_VTI patches already in. Due to some common interface
change, CONFIG_VTI can't pass compilation now. We'll work out a patch
soon.

Thanks,
Kevin
