No, the mentioned issue is fixed in -21, which was uploaded two days

But I'll update the backport to -21 within the next days.

For the record...  Two things which may be of note!


(a)
The Xen 3.2 hypervisor in Lenny, does not like to boot the 2.6.32
   kernel images as a Dom0 at all...  It gets some common/known
   error which is apparently down to the format/compression or similar.

I have been very successful, however, in backporting Xen 4.0.1rc?
   version from squeeze, and using that along with backports 2.6.32
   kernels on lenny.


(b)
The  helpful  linux-modules-2.6-xen-amd64  etc. was useful because it
   installed only the modules (for a paravirtualized guest) and it did
   not depend upon various boot-related initrd-related tools etc.
I wonder why that was then removed, that then means your guests need
   to have the whole linux-image and various other unnecessary packages,
   or a manually-updated-copy of the modules!
