if you cd in to the top level xen source directory and type either make
install or make kernels, the kernels are built and the modules _are_
installed...
(obviously they aren't installed into the domU filesystems, you'll need to
copy/tar/rsync /lib/modules/2.6.16-xenU/ to them... for that reason I
prefer to build in the options I'm going to use. )
The make file has a pretty good help target... (see below)

not sure how applicable that is. Looking at things is never a bad idea,
but distribution specific RPMs are usually a dog's breakfast of extra
patches.
[root@xen1 ~]# cd /usr/src/xen-3.0.2-2/
