(seeing it happening)

Also ACK from me.

A while ago this confused me because I initially thought this was a
binary package produced by src:xen, but it was not. At some point (I
think it was our latest IRL work together day of the Debian Xen team) I
realized that it really was not, and from that POV, I can confirm that
it is not used by anything in there.

Thanks,

Hans
