This is because the pvops kernel is based on a much newer upstream
kernel (2.6.31 or 32) than that found in Lenny (2.6.26) or Citrix
XenServer (2.6.18/27) and some of the kernel's internal interfaces must
have changed.
This has nothing to do with Xen per-se but rather compatibility with
different Linux kernels.
