Are there patches available or do you have to recompile your kernels whenever and exploit is found? You mean binary patches? Why do you think it's open _source_? So yes, you have to use the binary packages, or compile each new version, each new source patch. Additionally, the xen patches are always made against a specific kernel version. That means, if in kernel 2.6.16 an issue is found, you most probably have to wait until the xen developers release a xen patch version for the new, fixed, upstream kernel.
