From: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>

Instead of trying to guess the Xen version to use by compiling various
test programs first just ask the system via pkg-config. Only if it
can't return the version fall back to the test program scheme.

If configure is being called with dedicated flags for the Xen libraries
use those instead of the pkg-config output. This will avoid breaking
an in-tree Xen build of an old Xen version while a new Xen version is
installed on the build machine: pkg-config would pick up the installed
Xen config files as the Xen tree wouldn't contain any of them.

Hi -- this is an old patch, but MJT has just noticed that
it means that (assuming configure takes the "we have a pkg-config
for Xen" path) the Xen libraries get added to both libs_softmmu
and LDFLAGS, which means that everything, including the linux-user
binaries, gets linked against them. The old fallback path
only adds them to libs_softmmu.

Juergen: is there a reason why you added the libs to both
libs_softmmu and LDFLAGS here? Can we just delete the line
that alters LDFLAGS?

thanks

In the 'else' block that takes the non-pkg-config path, the libs are
only added to "libs_softmmu". So I think removing LDFLAGS is right.

Yes, I think you are correct.
