Bad luck with getting the free trip, I was hoping to avoid that for you. :-(
make install-tools should work, it's only a userspace problem you have. Did
you try to uninstall the existing userspace tools first as I suggested?
Reinstalling Xen / XenLinux will *definitely* not help with Python <-> C API
problems.
I went and poked in the Makefile for you and found that "make uninstall" runs
the following (I've removed the lines that delete the hypervisor and the
XenLinux kernel stuff, since you want to keep those).
You should substitute appropriate values for the environment variables. $(D)
should be set to the empty string, LIBDIR is probably /usr/lib. Please
double check the following commands for sanity as you always should before
rm -rf. Don't trust me too much :-)
rm -rf $(D)/etc/init.d/xend*
rm -rf $(D)/etc/hotplug/xen-backend.agent
rm -f $(D)/etc/udev/rules.d/xen-backend.rules
rm -f $(D)/etc/udev/xen-backend.rules
