If you use -MMD -MF then the correct .o filename is written to the
.*.d file as the compiler driver arranges everything. This was done
in 19010:275abe1c5d24 for the hypervisor.
In this patch we do the same elsewhere in the xen-unstable tree,
particularly tools/. Specifically:
* Change tools/Rules.mk to add -MMD -MF ... to CFLAGS and set DEPS.
* Remove -Wp,-MD... from every other Makefile
* Remove setting of DEPS from every other Makefile
* Ensure that every Makefile says -include $(DEPS)
* Ensure that every Makefile's clean target removes $(DEPS)
Some Makefiles were already halfway there, but often for a different
variable name eg PROG_DEP. The variable name is now standardised in
Rules.mk as DEPS.
I have done a test build with this change, on Debian etch.

The Xen tools contain a number of Python extensions written in C. The
C API to Python, used by these extensions, is not stable from one
version of Python to the next.
Our build system uses whatever version of Python is the default on the
build system at that time to build these extensions. However, the
actual scripts such as `xm' use #!/usr/bin/env python which uses
whichever version of Python is the default on the deployment system at
the time of invocation.
If for any reason these two versions of Python are not the same (eg,
because the system is built on one computer and executed on another,
or because the system's gains a more recent Python installation
alongside the original which changes the previous default), warnings
and failures occur.
In this patch I arrange for Python scripts to be installed via a
special wrapper around `install', which determines the build-time
Python version and path and then writes that into the #! line at the
point of `make install' (or `make dist'). (It can also be overridden
by setting PYTHON_PATH.)

lomount is a tool which reads and parses a partition table in a disk
image block device and then uses mount -o ...offset=... to mount it.
This is not an ideal approach. For example, if the intended
filesystem has corrupted metadata the kernel's filesystem driver may
start to write outside of the intended region. This might even be
exploitable in some perverse circumstances.
Nowadays people wanting to do this should use kpartx, which uses
devmapper to create appropriate range mappings. So lomount should be
disabled.
miniterm may well be useful but it is a clone-and-hack of an upstream
project and is currently built but not installed by default, partly
because it doesn't make sense to install on the dom0 which it might be
trying to debug.
It is probably useful to retain these two programs in the source tree
but IMO they should no longer be built by default.
The attached patch does these things:
* CONFIG_LOMOUNT and CONFIG_MINITERM in Config.mk
can enable and disable these programs
* They are disabled by default
* If CONFIG_MINITERM=y it is still built but not installed.
make -C tools/misc/miniterm install will install it.

It predates the current shadow architecture and only performs an explicitly
invalid shadow operation (on itself).

advantage that the temporary path manipulation cannot affect the main script,
and that it can be shared with other programs, such as xm-test.

Nothing but vnet uses libxutil -- move it there.
Makefile, xc.c, setup.py, configure, configure.in, Makefile.in:
This doesn't use libxutil.
Makefile, Makefile.vnet, Rules.mk:
Move libxutil into vnet since it's only used there.
Many files:
mvdir
Added the mbootpack tool, which packages multiboot boot files and
disguises them as a linux bzImage. Useful for booting Xen using
pxelinux, or another linux-only bootloader.

[PATCH] add-build.patch
Add build targets to all makefiles. Debian does builds as non-root, so
it's better to do as much as possible before requiring root privs.

Description: use DESTDIR correctly
Standard makefiles always attempt to install to the root(/). Setting
DESTDIR is the normal way to install to an alternative location.
Setting prefix has the possibility of breaking programs, as the prefix
may have been embedded inside a compiled binary.
