The version on backports.org doesn't even have xen support enabled due
to the missing libxen in Debian Lenny and Etch at that point - I tried
to make that obvous from the changelog but obviously failed. 
There's now a libxenstore on backports.org since recently, so the new
packages on backports.org will have xen support.

The LIBVIRT_DEBUG stuff isn't available in libvirt as of 0.4.0 so this
is expected, the debug build is as easy as passing DEB_BUILD_OPTS=debug
to the build though.
