Hi Mario,

There are indeed a few new downloads occuring during Xen building.
I trapped those ones :

GIT=git /tmp/SBo/xen-4.3.0/tools/firmware/../../scripts/git-checkout.sh git://xenbits.xen.org/seabios.git 3a28511b46f0c2af5fae1b6ed2b0c19d7913cee3 seabios-dir
/usr/bin/wget -c -O polarssl-1.1.4-gpl.tgz http://xenbits.xen.org/xen-extfiles/polarssl-1.1.4-gpl.tgz
/usr/bin/wget -c -O tpm_emulator-0.7.4.tar.gz http://xenbits.xen.org/xen-extfiles/tpm_emulator-0.7.4.tar.gz
/usr/bin/wget -c -O gmp-4.3.2.tar.bz2 http://xenbits.xen.org/xen-extfiles/gmp-4.3.2.tar.bz2 (as already seen)

I agree with you, it's best to stick to the last stable version of Xen !
