We need to get one of these approaches checked into the main tree, lest someon writes a third. The wrapper program is pretty unavoidable as the 'legacy' loaders only support two modules and we potentially need three. Having both the xen and kernel command line's configurable via a '--' hack seems sane. Michael, Tim: Please can you try and agree on a way forward.
