I have added xendom0 to the name of the latest build
( 2.6.29.1-1.2.20.xendom0.fc11 )
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1299170
for which the main rpms are also available from the repository 
http://fedorapeople.org/~myoung/dom0/
I based this on the F-11 branch and since that seemed to fit best to 
what is currently on the upstream git repository, though an updated set of 
branches should appear shortly (eg. see
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2009-04/msg00416.html
) so this may change.
