Adding Christoph's new address, I guess this is a thing exposed on
NetBSD?

This is not specific to NetBSD. It is exposed everywhere where you
install Xen into a non-default directory by specifying the prefix
to configure.

Indeed so.  I think a better way of putting it is that (IIRC) this bug
in our build system was exposed routinely on NetBSD because the NetBSD
ports collection always passes --prefix.  Is that right ?


Yes, this is right.

It is also routinely exposed when you choose a different prefix
for different xen versions for development purpose.
I use xen-<c/s> to switch forth and back between different
xen versions. This way I am always able to use a working version
and to test a new changeset.
