if it's only a source-level API this implies that when you move your
host kernel from 2.6.19 to 2.6.25 you would need to recompile your
2.6.19 guest kernel to support the modifications. where are the
patches going to come from to do this?
No, the low-level interface between the kernel is an ABI, which will be
as stable as your hypervisor author/vendor wants it to be (which is
generally "very stable"). The question is whether that low-level
interface is exposed to the rest of the kernel directly, or hidden
behind a kernel-internal source-level API.
