send hangs on start after migrating to xenkernel41

[Torsten Harenberg <harenberg%physik.uni-wuppertal.de@localhost>]

Dear all,

I run a couple of nodes running 5.1 with Xen 3 and now tried to migrate to Xen 
4.1.

So I compiled sysutils/xenkernel41 (and even a fresh Dom0 kernel from 
up-to-date netbsd-5 sources) and booted into this.

Now xend does not like to start - it hangs on booting:

  524 ?     IW   0:00.01 /usr/pkg/bin/python2.6 /usr/pkg/sbin/xend 
  531 ?     ZW   0:00.00 (python2.6)
  532 ?     Dl   0:01.71 /usr/pkg/bin/python2.6 /usr/pkg/sbin/xend 
   66 ttyp0 IW   0:00.28 /usr/pkg/bin/python2.6 /usr/pkg/sbin/xend 
  469 ttyp0 IWs  0:00.04 -ksh 
  505 ttyp0 IW   0:00.01 /bin/sh /etc/rc.d/xend onestart 
  529 ttyp0 ZW   0:00.00 (blktapctrl)

log file doesn't show much, only:

Xend started at Wed Mar  7 20:02:17 2012.
brctl: not found
brctl: not found

# uname -a

# xm dmesg
Error: Unable to connect to xend: No such file or directory. Is xend running?
# 


I think the access to /kern/xen is the problem, as this also hangs forever:

# ls /kern/xen

I think I have all in /dev (the machine used to run fine before). Any ideas?

Thanks
