I'm not Alex, but I brought this issue up: Either build xen bits once for all archs or restrict it to the only foreseeable arch with support in qemu. But please don't built it for each and every target separately.

Doesn't CONFIG_XEN also control here if the arch is xen-capable? Thanks, Jan -- Siemens AG, Corporate Technology, CT T DE IT 1 Corporate Competence Center Embedded Linux
