This is a Debian packaging thing, not a Xen thing at all, and certainly
not a xen-devel thing.

IIRC the Xen packages in Debian use some of the packaging infrastructure
provided by Linux at source package preparation time (not actual build
time) and end up with a specific dependency.

You might have some luck frobbing xen/debian/rules.defs, or you might
find it easier to backport the required version.
