[Fedora-xen] Xen 4.8.0 now in rawhide

2016-12-07 Thread M A Young
I have just finished building xen-4.8.0 in rawhide. As well as the update I have enabled armv7hl and aarch64 builds. These should be considered experimental, and may not work, particularly as I believe some other packages such as the kernel, don't yet have xen support for these architectures.
