I modified your patch and resubmitted it (sorry if that's not ok),
since this is the first place where new functions are added to libxl.

Neither do I, I'm not an expert on build processes, but if I need to
append CFLAGS and LDFLAGS to the build process to find my yajl library
libxl should not try to use the libxenligh.so and libxenutil.so from
the CFLAGS/LDFLAGS folder, because they are outdated. If not, the only
option left is to clean my LDFLAGS and CFLAGS folders from previous
Xen versions and compile the new version, but that's risky.
