FTR, that other bug reported against xen
(https://bugs.debian.org/668641) was marked as fixed in 4.3.0-1, which
is currently in Debian testing/sid. I've not looked at it close
enough, but it might be that this either invalidates this bug, or
makes the patch obsolete. In case someone who's more into Xen than
I am wants to have a look :)

Cheers!
