It probably makes sense to have a post-install/post-uninstall script in 
the xen-hypervisor RPM to run this. The updated grub2 creates a set of 
entries for each of xen-4.1.1.gz and its two symbolic links xen-4.1.gz and 
xen.gz which is a bit untidy, so perhaps it makes sense to remove the 
symbolic links.
