   Hi,

> /etc/fstab contains 'xenfs' entry (3.4.1) in both cases

Hmm, where does that one come from?
It should not be there, it is not needed.
The xen packages never ever touch /etc/fstab.

Both F11 (3.3.x) and F12 (3.4.x) xen packages mount the filesystem 
automatically.  Very early xen packages with pv_ops kernel support 
didn't do that though, so maybe the /etc/fstab entry was added manually 
back then and was never deleted?

cheers,
   Gerd
