changeset: 6987, old issue's still around, and major pita seems fixed

[Ted Kaczmarek <tedkaz@optonline.net>]

Both of these are not easy to reproduce. Also noticed that at some point
mac addresses for vif in configs no longer accepts upper case letters. 
Not a big deal if that is desired, but something for the release/config
notes.

2) vanishing memory
After hosing a domU I  was unable to reclaim the memory that was
assigned to it even after destroying it, restart of xend had no affects.

So far I have not been able to reproduce the Unable to read
memory/target, start getting those pint glasses chilled :-)

Best Regards,
