	Architecture
	------------

	Xen is basically amd64 only at this point. One can either run i386
	domains or amd64 domains. If running i386, PAE versions are required,
	for both dom0 and domU. These versions are built by default in NetBSD
	releases. While i386 dom0 works fine, amd64 is recommended as more
	normal. (Note that emacs (at least) fails if run on i386 with PAE when
	built without, and vice versa, presumably due to bugs in the undump
	code.)
