This is because init was compiled and statically linked without xen
friendly libc. Its perfectly harmless and can be ignored.

If you want to make the warning go away, obtain the source to init
(sysvinit) from your distro and rebuild/install it after installing xen
friendly glibc.

Its quite harmless and really not worth fixing.
