Sorry for the noise. I had the debian build flags like:====== flags =======
DPKG_EXPORT_BUILDFLAGS = 1
include /usr/share/dpkg/default.mk
export DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS=hardening=-pie======= snip ======
this caused pv-grub to fail to boot domUOnce I usedexport DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS=hardening=-all
and rebuilt, things were good again.

I can't reproduce this issue. pvgrub is working just fine booting either
a 3.0 or a 4.9 pv-kernel (used a fresh xen git tree from staging).

Can you please start the domain with

xl create -c <your-config>

and have a look whether you see some error output from pvgrub? You
might want to redirect output to a file or issue the command in a
terminal window with logging enabled as the pvgrub menu will blank
out some of the output.
