If Jerry is using the `upstream' xen 3.2 src rpm for Centos available
from xen.org, I made it based on the Centos source rpm for xen 3.1, so
I don't think _that_ bug at least is likely to be mine if it is a bug
:-).

But yes, bugs of this kind do seem likely.  Build dependencies are
generally more important for autobuilding tools and I didn't pay a
great deal of attention to getting them exactly right for the
packages I made.
