  I can come up only with a complex answer:
      - the linux kernel code is rawhide one, so very close from
        Linux upstream git head version
      - the Xen hypervisor and user mode code is from December 6
        snapshot (xen-20051206.tar.bz)
      - the Linux Xen bits are coming from linux-2.6-merge.hg repository
        and I expect them to be relatively recent, though I wasn't able
	to spot the exact changeset right now, anyway I would expect to
	be less than a week old
