Splitting this out is probably o.k. if we'd split out all drivers (and
add the necessary depends). This also needs a NEWS entry so people are
aware that this has changed as well as bugs against all reverse
dependencies to inform them that they might need to depend on a
different package. Is this worth the trouble for getting rid of a libxen
dependency?

Cheers,
