I missed that you are talking about PE executable. However,
as it was said you must create xen.cfg in advance and put it in the same

TBH I'm not clear on whether the executable is -- or more importantly,
still will be -- needed.
Atm, I'm manually creating the xen.cfg/xen.ini and chainloading via
GRUB2. Hence the mess, and asking about simpler approaches.
IIUC, systemd-boot is a rename (fork?) of gummiboot. WAS going to try
it awhile ago, as a simpler alternative to Grub2, but saw only that the
project had been emptied out. Didn't realize that it'd been subsumed.
Interestingly, from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gummiboot_(software)
"Red Hat's Fedora Project does not use gummiboot for booting UEFI
systems; instead, it will use efilinux to chainload GRUB."
Trying to find out the WHY in the different boot-Xen-on-UEFI approaches,
let alone simply what just works, is a challenge.
