http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=commit;h=de858271c16851d662b2613 699401df6ecec8ef8 has now landed upstream, which allows the leaf dir to be set at configure time and therefore allows the packaging to avoid patching some stuff. HVM guests have been broken in Stretch for ages now, so I'm going to look at preparing an NMU based on that upstream fix + adding --with-libexec-leaf-dir=xen-$(VERSION) to the configure arguments. I expect some minor adjustments to debian/patches/config-prefix.diff will also be required. An early version of that (based on the not-yet-upstream version of the patch) is in pkg-xen.git#feature/bug805508, I don't imagine the final result will look much different. I'll post a debdiff here as well as updating that branch. Ian.
