I don't think it's planned to be included but there again I don't think anyone 
has asked...  -testing generally only accepts bug fixes now (a bit like the 
Linux 2.6.x.y series).  -unstable is a separate project to produce Xen 3.0 
and so features aren't generally backported.

There's a thought...  That might *almost* work but there may be other internal 
API changes that stop it working prorperly.

-unstable will go into feature freeze in the next couple of months anyhow, so 
you won't have to wait long before you can get a release with the new 
scheduler.
