  Hi,

I mean we can add them to libxc so that there is no need for this patch
anymore.

That would be great. When adding the xen bits initially I've tried to avoid hard dependencies on specific xen versions. There are some ifdefs in the qemu code to support compiling with various xen versions (IIRC 3.1 -> 3.4 worked last time I've tried). I think the minimum supported range of xen versions should be the ones still actively maintained by xensource (I think this is 3.4, 4.0 and unstable right now). Supporting even older versions would be nice to have.

cheers,
  Gerd
