Oddest thing...  the latest Debian libc6-i686 package (2.3.5-6) doesn't 
generate any TLS warning with Xen.  So I don't have to compile my own 
version after all - the compilation failed anyway :-).  Could others 
confirm this!?
I have been stuck with Mercurial 0.6b because 0.6c (presume 0.7 too) 
requires libc6 2.3.5.  Now I can upgrade!  :-)
