Sorry that I let this slip.

pv-grub needs at least some external stuff:
- legacy grub
- zlib

They should come with the already available packages if possible. zlib
should be easy. Legacy grub is unmaintained, so changes there are not
easy and needs large patches anyway, so this may be bundled for nor.

If someone could do the same for ioemu (needs lwip and newlib) …
