 Ideally, all versions of Xen in pkgsrc would build on all supported
 versions of NetBSD/amd64, to the point where this section would be
 silly.  However, that has not always been the case.  Besides aging
 code and aging compilers, qemu (included in xentools for HVM support)
 is difficult to build.  Note that there is intentionally no data for
-4.5 and up for i386.  The following are known to be ok or FAIL, with
-the date last checked (generally on the most recent quarterly branch):
+4.5+ up for i386, and often omits xentools info if the corresponding
+kernel fails.
+
+The following table gives status, with the date last checked
+(generally on the most recent quarterly branch).  The first code is
+"builds" if it builds ok, and "FAIL" for a failure to build.  The
+second code/date only appears for xenkernel* and is "works" if it runs
+ok as a dom0, and "FAIL" if it won't boot or run a domU.
