$ ldd /path/to/prelink

If it says it isn't a dynamic executable, then you are home.  If it
says something like

        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7e09000)

then either you should install the Xen variant of libc or if it's
already installed get this program to use it.

As I said, it isn't necessarily a problem.  Some core binaries (for
example init and ldconfig, and possibly also prelink) can be
statically linked and thus "carry" Xen unaware libc routines.  As
these binaries are seldom performance critical, you can ignore the
kernel messages about them.
