An entry in boot.cfg could be:
menu=Boot Xen:load netbsd-XEN3_DOM0;multiboot /usr/pkg/xen3-kernel/xen.gz dom0_m

The only change to the load command is that it interpretes anything up
to the first space or tab as file name, but keeps the rest in bi_path.
I don't think the kernel currently uses that.
