I finally worked out why I had no support for IPTABLES.
Following the instructions is a bit incomplete:
Networking ---> Networking options ---> [*] Network packet filtering
(replaces ipchains) ---> IP: Netfilter Configuration ---> <M> IP tables
support (required for filtering/masq/NAT)
*you need to do one more step:*
turning on <M> IP tables support (required for filtering/masq/NAT)
isn't enough
you have to actually enable the type of IPtables support you want
I don't know what I need so turned most on (*or <M> as module*)
eg.
<M>IP range match
support
<M> Multiple port match
support
<M> TOS match
support
<M> recent match
support
<M> ECN match
support
<M> DSCP match support
Perhaps this is obvious to people more skilled in customising/compiling
their own kernels.
But to me it wasn't and I assume from the number of similar questions
not to alot of people either.
So I hope this saves somebody a bit of pain.

actually it seems to be a xen0 as I can run guest xenU inside of it.
in you xenU xm config file set
kernel=/path/to/2.6.16.29-xen
then reboot yoru xenU and you should be able to load the 2.6.16.29-xen
modules.
(you can use a Xen0 kernel in a XenU with no problems; it's just
slightly larger)
