Thanks.  Ian, I've applied both your patches to trunk (extending your
ChangeLog entry to cover the second as well); they'll be in the next

        * util/grub.d/20_linux_xen.in (linux_entry): Correctly capitalize
        Xen and reorder menu item wording to make it clearer that this entry

        Linux.
