Well, it depends how much commonality we think there will be between 
different OS's header files in future. If the details are hidden inside 
libxc then it wouldn't hurt to guarantee very little at the kernel and 
have libxc include from linux/ or solaris/ directly depending on how it 
is targetted at compile time. I'm not keen on the name dom0/ anyway -- 
those headers (particularly evtchn.h) are applicable to other domains 
too.
