you want to build your own version of the hypervisor (I tried that). Then what
is sunos.hg? Do you need to build this directory, and if so, what will it

I think sunos.hg contains:
+ tools for building Xen bits within Solaris environment.
+ Solaris dom0 specific stuff, including scripts for backend drivers and
smf services...
So, if you use Solaris as dom0, you''ll need this directory.
