[Xen-users] Disabling clock set in PV boot?

Is there some way to prevent Xen from setting the clock for a PV guest
while booting it? ie. getting rid of this boot message:

Setting clock (localtime) Fri Oct 16 09:43:52 BST 2009 [ OK ]

This PV guest (Centos 5) has independent_wallclock set, and runs on
it''s
own date and time settings, but I still have to fix the date after every
boot because Xen has set it to the Dom0''s time.

Setting ''independent_wallclock=1'' as a boot parameter
doesn''t stop the
clock set. I''m on Xen 3.1.0, using an old-style config file.

Thanks -
