AFAICT there are three things here:
  * Ability to specify the stack
  * Scheduler hook
  * Something to do with timeouts
I don't quite understand the timeout changes or why minios's existing
timeout machinery wasn't sufficient.

In more general terms it would be better to have a formal set of
patches to minios to be sent to the minios maintainers and xen-devel.
But most of what you have done doesn't seem controversial in spirit,
so it probably won't make sorting out the minios fork much harder.

And getting threads going is great and I really don't want to
discourage you from pressing on...

Thanks,
Ian.
