I would give it a 90% chance of working. If it's given as source-code,
then it's higher chance than if it's a binary driver. There's not much
difference (as far as Xen is concerned) between 2.6.18 and 2.6.18-8 [I
converted my Xen-unstable to 2.6.18-8 for a bit, but moved back simply
because I cloned a new Xen-unstable tree], which means that chances are
pretty good that it will work.
