Hi, Keir

I tried Horms's kexec patch and Kazuo's tools.
And I could get coredump of dom0!
By using this feature, we can debug dom0 with gdbserver-xen 
to the same way as domU.
I think that this is very useful.
Xen don't have dump feature yet,
and this feature don't affect performace, stability, and so on.
We think this feature is necessary for trouble-shooting xen.

Could Keir apply this feature?
or more comments?

Best Regards,

Akio Takebe
