>Description:

	-current's /usr/mdec/boot is no longer capable to multiboot
	xen kernels:

	  http://nice.afraid.org/multiboot-xen-prob/DSCF2640.PNG

	After my report around March this year

	  http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-xen/2009/03/22/msg004864.html

	quite the same problem (beside others) disappered suddenly, so
	I did not send-pr at that time. But no it's back!

	Rebuild everything from scratch did not help.

	Excerpt of my /boot.cfg:

	  menu=Boot Xen 3.3 customized:load /netbsd-DOM0 console=pc; multiboot /xen33.gz dom0_mem=2097152

	which was working before.

	I also checked releng's mdec/boot versions (amd64 + i386)
	which show the same problem.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Try to multiboot a -current based xen33 kernel/system w/
	NetBSD's mdec/boot.
>Fix:
	Not exactly tested, but mdec/boot of -current about one month
	ago should work.
