Do you mean "how does this affect the binaries released by 
XenSource"? Probably not at all.

If you mean, how do I apply this to 3.1, just copy the content of 
that patch into a file (say in a file called "fixbuild.patch" in your 
home directory), then go to your xen 3.1 tree and do "patch -p 1 < 
~/fix-build.patch". It should apply without much fuss.
