Re: VMX nightly testing for Xen:#17269 is blocked

Bug #1 is almost certainly due to one of Stefano's patches. He's now cc'ed.

Obvious suspect is the SDL OpenGL rendering patches. You could try adding
opengl=0 to your guest config file, or reverting the changesets relating to
sdl/opengl (there are 3 or 4 of them).
