Juergen,

Can we see your actual `./configure *` line? Were you able to build the
included qemu-xen and stubdom/pvgrub?

By the way, here is the Debian way to configure the Xen in repo:
(from https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-xen/xen.git/tree/debian/rules.real
)
$(STAMPS_DIR)/setup-utils_$(ARCH):
    @rm -rf $(DIR)
    mkdir -p $(DIR)
    cp -al $(SOURCE_FILES) $(DIR)
    cp --remove-destination /usr/share/misc/config.guess
/usr/share/misc/config.sub $(DIR)
    cd $(DIR); \
        WGET=/bin/false \
        ./configure \
            --disable-docs --disable-stubdom --disable-xen \
            --prefix=/usr \
            --includedir=/usr/include \
            --libdir=/usr/lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH) \
            --mandir=/usr/share/man \
            --infodir=/usr/share/info \
            --sysconfdir=/etc \
            --localstatedir=/var \
            --disable-blktap1 \
            --disable-blktap2 \
            --disable-ocamltools \
            --disable-qemu-traditional --disable-rombios \
            --with-system-qemu=/usr/bin/qemu-system-i386 \
            --with-system-seabios=/usr/share/seabios/bios-256k.bin
    @$(stamp)

See how they disable and outsource so many parts of upstream Xen?

thanks,
