It has turned out to cause more trouble than its solves though. Various people want to try out & user the newer libvirt on RHEL-5 hosts than the version we ship in RHEL-5. The current libvirt releases don't entirely work on RHEL-5 , due to fact that RHEL-5 Xen has backported a number of newer features. Adding this new --with-rhel5-api is a compromise - we target official Xen releases by default, but if you pass this flag at build time it'll enable the extra features backported to RHEL-5 Xen.
