You are right, it isn't very consistent. The kernel is fc15 because it is actually a xenified version of current fc15 kernel, though it should work on other Fedora versions, and I use it on fc14 without any obvious additional problems. The xen package is fc14 because I am guessing that most people are still using fc14 and haven't switched to rawhide yet. I haven't tried the fc14 xen packages on rawhide, but I am not aware of any big differences that would cause them to break.
