Yes, this will happen as there's no official dom0 support for kernels which are newer than 2.6.18 coming from XenSource. Etch had a kernel which had dom0 support as it was based exactly on 2.6.18. We are discussing exactly this subject here. The distros which wants to have a working dom0 support would need to do one more forward-porting work so dom0 support would be available on later kernels (2.6.26, por example). It seems that SuSE did the work fot 2.6.26. The idea is to use a paravirt_ops based kernel in the future, possibly starting on Lenny+1/2, which would support dom0 natively without the need of a non-official/non-supported forward-port.
