Until proper out-of-tree Xen builds work, building the shim binary at all is a PITA. These defaults give a developer a single binary which is capable of running natively or as the shim, which has made development far more productive. Its certainly the way I'd expect to do primary future development of the shim. ~Andrew _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org https://lists.xenproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xen-devel
