Sorry, was something different.

I've tried to turn the sparse tree into a big patch (is there an easy
way to do this btw?).  Documentation/dontdiff excludes too much giving
me a incomplete xenlinux tree, which in turn generated build errors
looking much like it takes the wrong (native) include files.  I've seen
that in the past with O=, so I blamed it first ...

cheers,
  Gerd
