OK, I've answered my own question.

I've rebuilt the following packages from Fedora 8 on CentOS 5.1 x86_64, 
added them to my own yum repo, then done a clean kickstart install of 
CentOS 5.1 using my yum repo as a source.

The result? It all seems to be working very nicely! The networking on my 
old domains (that use xenbr0 in the config files) work without any 
modification.

These are the packages I re-built:

	libvirt-0.4.0-4
	virt-viewer-0.0.2-2
	xen-libs-3.1.2-1
	gtk-vnc-0.2.0-4
	libvirt-python-0.4.0-4
	python-virtinst-0.300.2-2
	xen-3.1.2-1.x86_64

The binaries are in my repo here:

	http://repo.yo61.net/

Specifically, here:

	http://repo.yo61.net/centos/5/x86_64/RPMS/

Hopefully, this will keep me going for a while!
