[Ian Campbell <Ian.Campbell@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Please don't cross post between lists. I've dropped -users to Bcc.

Please do consult the MAINTAINERS file and try to CC to the appropriate
people.

Lastly, Please try and use informative subject lines.

Seems like we either need to backport:
        commit 3179d694a8dcaa091131e3db644d445c0130713e
        Author: Michael Tokarev <mjt@xxxxxxxxxx>
        Date:   Tue Mar 20 02:25:57 2012 +0400
        
            Support utf8 chars in pod docs
            
Or just disable the build of docs for qemu-xen-trad, it seems to me that
they are rather useless...

Ian.
