Fedora Core 5 is currently running a 2.6.17 based Xen forward port. You can
get the source RPMs from:

  
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/5/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.17-1.2174_FC5.src.rpm

The forthcoming Fedora Core 6 though is tracking the 2.6.18 tree. You can
sync off the Mercurial repo for this tree here:

  http://hg.et.redhat.com/kernel/linux-2.6-xen-fedora

As a general rule Fedora always tracks the very latest upstream kernels, so
even once Xen itself re-sync to 2.6.18, Fedora will be moving forward again
to the 2.6.19 tree & so on...

Regards,
Dan.
