Thanks! I had missed that patch when updating to that changeset.

I think "make mkpatches" is correct, but I missed the additional patch. To 
use the patch from mkpatches and apply them to a vanilla kernel, one also 
needs to apply all patches from patches/linux-2.6.16. "make mkpatches" 
creates diffs between vanilla+patches/linux-2.6.16 and 
xenified+patches/linux-2.6.16).
