Ok, the CVS logs were confusing me here - the hypervisor is on 11540, but the actual kernel is on 11740 - as Guillaume correctly points out in his BZ ticket. Since 11740 is only 30 changesets before the 3.0.3 release tar.gz, and those 30 changesets contain some pretty important bugfixes I plan to just sync the userspace xen RPM upto 3.0.3 official tar.gz. This should give FC5 a fully operational Xen stack again.
