[PATCH] Allow command-line editing in Lilo boot loader for IA64 platform

Hi folks,
this is pygrub patch to allow command-line editing in (e)Lilo boot 
loader used as a default boot loader for IA64. There was an error when 
creating domain using `xm create -c somePVguest` and pressing 'e' (for 
editing boot line) and then booting it using 'b' option. It returned an 
exception on IA64 platform because reset() function has one more 
parameter for Lilo bootloader used by IA64 than for GRUB bootloader used 
for other platforms.

Best regards,
  Michal
