From a release management perspective, there are a couple of big
changes since RC3 that need testing:

* PVH mode has been fixed. This involved a change on the nested virt code.

* Building with the latest release of Clang has been fixed. This may
affect builds on other compilers -- please test different versions of
clang and gcc.

* A big patch series fixing races in libvirt/libxl was checked in.
Testing with libvirt or xl would be helpful.

* A patch fixing guest floating point support on ARM systems was
checked in. Please run some programs that use the floating point
unit.

* A patch fixing an issue with device-passthru for HVM guests when the
VNC client attached. Please test migration, in particular with and
without the VNC client attached; and device pass-through, with and
without the VNC client attached. (Migration with a device passed
through is not supported.)
