[gPXE] Booting xen-3.3 with gpxe as a multiboot image

Everyone,
I've busy on other tasks, so its been awhile getting back to you.
I've tried all the suggestions thus far to little effect. I uncompressed all the modules, reordered them, and I've also tried Shao's idea.
The mboot.c32 techniques always seem to fail, no matter how its loaded, leading me to suspect a incompatibility with the two pieces
of software.
As for booting xen directly with gpxe, still no success, but I was able to get the xen kernel to give me messages finally. It does appear
getting past the point where I thought it was hanging, only to get stuck later on.

As you can see, its failing because something isn't an elf binary. I've done some checking, and have reasonably proven
that my images are not corrupted. Having little else to point to from my own searches, I'm forced to conclude that this
is being caused by gpxe somehow. Especially since when I chainload pxelinux, xen loads fine. Here is the output from that
