So, just to be sure I understand this correctly, Fedora rh/18 will have
Xen 4.2 and, if one whats to use it with libvirt, that would happen
through XenD, right?

 There should still be time to get xen 
 4.2 into Fedora 18 if there aren't any problems in rawhide.
 
Just in case you're interested and have not seen that, as a consequence
of your previous message in this list, George and I started an
investigation about integration issues between Xen =4.2 and libvirt.

Here's the thread:

The final change deadline is currently 26th November. That may not be an 
absolute deadline, but you have a better chance of the libvirt team 
accepting changes before then.

Should be this: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/18/Schedule

So 2012-12-11... For now. :-)

 There are some people 
 working on 4.2 support for libvirt, so if that was working within the 
 next month or two, could it be back-ported to the libvirt in Fedora?
 
So 1 month maybe, 2 probably not. What I'm not sure about is whether or
not that could also happen _after_ the release. IOW, would such an
update to libvirt hit the already released F18? Or will it become
rawhide an then F19 material?

Thanks and Regards.
