I think this should be dropped if it can be without breaking any
part of the build.
This is because all the tools are part of xen.git, right?

If I was the maintainer of this code, I'd ask for the struct declaration
to be moved (into the existing #if) rather than adding a 2nd #if.

s/2nd/3rd/ ;)

The reason I haven't done that is git will generate a completely unrelated diff. So it makes quite difficult to understand the purpose of the patch.
