I'm using this:

#define NOTE(name, type, desc)			\
	.align 4;				\
	.long 2f - 1f;	/* namesz */		\
	.long 4f - 3f;	/* descsz */		\
	.long type;				\
1:	.asciz name;				\
2:	.align 4;				\
3:	desc;					\
4:

to actually generate the notes in a .note.xen section, but then I need 
to do something to make ld actually create a PT_NOTE segment from this.  
I haven't tried linking it yet, but I assume there's no magic default...
