Xen from ports won't boot using -CURRENT

Hello!

I'm using a -CURRENT install from a couple of weeks ago:

FreeBSD 11.0-CURRENT #0 r297495: Fri Apr  1 21:24:26 UTC 2016

I installed xen from ports and followed the instructions on setting up:

/etc/sysctl.conf

/etc/ttys

/boot/loader.conf

/boot/menu.rc.local


However after rebooting, booting fails with:


don't know how to load module '/boot/xen'


I'm guessing it's because for some reason it got compiled as 32-bit:


/boot/xen: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV),
statically linked, stripped


I assume on amd64 it should be 64-bit?


Thanks!

-Dustin
