When I was still running 5.1_RCx, I would occasionally boot Xen 3.3.2.
Since the Xen kernel found PAE support, a netbsd-XEN3PAE_DOM0 kernel
was required and ran just fine.

I'll have to try it again with -current

Please do.

I tried booting Xen w/netbsd-XEN3_DOM0 kernel, but it won't boot at all.
All I get is a long string of the word "exit" down the left edge of the
console (video, it doesn't seem to want to honor "console=com0" (netbsd)
or "console=com1" (xen.gz)) ending up with:

[...]
exit
exit
exit
prot_to_real can't return to 00010AAC

If there was anything before this, it flashed by too quickly for me to
see it.  The BIOS then continues with the next boot device (network PXE
in the case of my machine).
