This patch does two things: It allows for the loading of a x86 32 bit ELF kernel which handles both PAE (extended cr3) and non-PAE operating modes. A bimodal kernel detects the current operating mode and adjusts its usage of the page tables accordingly. The second thing the patch does is to change the elf loader to not look for a strings section unless it is needed. I've just changes the NetWare Xen loader (kernel) to no longer use the bin loader, opting for the elf loader instead, as it is much better maintained, and allows for better flexibility.
