s/goes/docs/ wtf. Anyway you'd already pointed me at xl.cfg(5). Which
says that seabios ought to have been the default if
device_model_version=qemu-xen. (Although you said to use
'device_model_version_override'...)

And when I set it explicitly it doesn't work...

[root at i7 ~]# cat seabios.cfg 
builder = "hvm"
name = "seabios"
device_model_version_override = "qemu-xen"
bios = 'seabios'
memory = 512
serial = 'pty'
firmware_override = '/home/dwmw2/fedora/xen/f18/xen-4.2.1/tools/firmware/hvmloader/hvmloader'

[root at i7 ~]# xl create -c -d  seabios.cfg
