OK, I misunderstood you since you responded in the thread and quoted some
of my post.
My blog post has nothing relevant to Xen and PVHM, and is specific to
setting up
a Google Summer of Code student on a 10-CURRENT environment.  The FreeBSD
Xen
and PVHM developers will need to provide the details about their plans to
merge their changes to the 9-STABLE branch.....
that's something which I am not familiar with.
