Not at the moment, the only "real" NetBSDs are Xen dom0 themselves,
which I can't stop right now.

Unfortunately I have no more info/pointers to provide, I did want to
give veriexec under xen a try many months ago, I think it wasn't
compiling back then.. memory details are sketchy.. so no guesstimate as
to when this has stopped working.

Veriexec is not critical for what I'm doing with this VM, but I did want
to give it a try!

If anyone has suggestions, I'm listening :)
