for this to be ready for Fedora 10. So if you need to use Fedora 10 as a host, then KVM is your only viable option at this time. If you can wait for Fedora 11 (or use RHEL-5 / CentOS-5) then Xen may be an option for you. I'll let other people comment on the pros/cons of Xen vs KVM outside the kernel availability issue.
Aren't you planning to extend the lifecycle of Fedora 8 as the last available version with dom0 support?
Extending the Fedora 8 lifecycle would impose an extra support burden on all Fedora package maintainers that is not really practical. If you need a long term deployable Xen host, then really you should be looking at RHEL-5 or CentOS-5 depending on whether you need commercial support (RHEL) or not (CentOS).
