Thanks for that. I have applied your patches to the code, and checked
in your commentary as a new document file after some editing.
I've also:

* Documented the registry location and allocation protocol
 (qemu-xen-unstable's xenstore.c, and ask on xen-devel, respectively)
* Assigned 0xffff for `experimental' drivers in the hope that people
 won't steal one of the existing assignments.
* Assigned 2 ("gplpv-windows") for James's drivers. James, you are
 in the best position to decide what the `build id' should look like
 and there is no need to document it other than in your release
 notes, so I'll leave that to you.
Ian.
