This is a complaint that should be made to the Xen folks for not
getting their stuff upstream sooner (I'm sure they would appreciate
complaints in unified diff format).  It's completely unreasonable to
expect the Fedora kernel maintainers to backport non-trivial features
like Xen and be able to keep up with normal kernel updates.

(They did this in Fedora 8 and earlier and it was a huge burden.)

It's good to see things are finally moving upstream now.  If Fedora's
decision to not include Xen until it was upstream had anything to do
with that, then it's a very good thing. :)
