should probably be:
menu=Boot Xen:rndseed /var/db/entropy-file;consdev com0,57600;load /netbsd-XEN3_ DOM0 console=com0;multiboot /xen-debug.gz dom0_mem=1024M console=com1 com1=57600,8n1,0x3f8

(should really be console=com0 for NetBSD, it doens't access the hardware and
use the I/O services from the hypervisor)
