My major concern is Libvirt 0.7.1-15. Regardless virt-install still works fine
installing PV & HVM DomUs at Xen 4.0-rc7 (2.6.10 pvops) Dom0 on top of F12.
"virsh create" ,with virsh been compiled against Libvirt 0.7.1-15, fails to
create new domain ( for OSOL 134 in particular). Seems like old Xen driver has to be
updated.

If you don't update you are stuck with the problems in the old version.
If you update now you have a path to a working version.

Doesn't look like a hard choice here, the alternatives are patch 3.4.3
to make it work right, or not get it in the release. I doubt it will get
added if it isn't there to start, and patching obsolete code is pretty
much a no-go, as well. Fedora is cutting edge, time to move.
Yeah, I agree.
Xen 4.0.0-rc8 is the latest release now, and it's supposed to be the last rc..
Gerd: Would you like to update the Fedora xen rpm?
