dom0/U under gentoo and when I tried to upgrade to 2.0.7 well, things 
didn't go well. :-)

I would really like to build a repeatable process of taking the source 
deb, extracting essential elements and doing effectively what you 
described above based on the packages kernel configuration, patches,

that's the plan.
