I've looked around internally for the RPMs which were previously
published on xen.org but I'm afraid I cannot find them anywhere.

If you really feel you cannot use the supported stuff from Red Hat then
some older XenServer versions also contained similar RPMs, which still
appear to be available:
    http://updates.vmd.citrix.com/XenServer/5.5.0/rhel3x

Obviously these are completely unsupported in this context, either by
xen.org or the XenServer folks. These appear to have a few more fixes
(over the same rhel3x baseline) than the ones previously on xen.org but
I guess that is a good thing.

Ian.
