I've found this bug report:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=379815

This explains why I can't compile libvirt with the USE flag xen.
A bug is going to be fixed.

I have to find an alternative to create domUs. For instance a CentOS domU.
Most of the instructions I've read didn't help me.

OK, I've done it, but I think it doesn't make any difference in my case.

I've never received any kernel/package compilation error. We, Gentoo users,
are used to compile everything on our Linux boxes!

Well, this seems to be a tailored made guide for those users that want
to fully setup a dom0. I need something for domUs.

Thanks,
