Thats unlucky... 2.6.32 is a bit of a lost cause these days... Jeremy 
used to maintain a xen dom0 kernel source for 2.6.32, but he hadn't 
updated it in many months.

 From what I recall, vanilla 2.6.32 does not support half the features - 
and I'm stretching my memory now - but it may not even support running 
out of the box as a Dom0.

The main reason I've moved on to 3.x is the lack of updates / security 
fixes and the lack of patches for 2.6.32. All the development and 
updates are now happening on the 3.x branch.
