Yes Ubuntu xen 4.4 packages can be a start, I think also that is good 
remove more debian/patches possible to make faster future updates.
I already reported here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xen/+bug/1297224
At least 3 pathes can be already removed and use configure values instead.
Probably there are also other things that can be fixed and/or improved 
upstream instead always have and maintain dozen of distros patches.

Thanks for any help about debian packages and sorry for my band english.
