Yes, that is because I use xen domU on x86_64 machines only. If you
need xen domU on i686, feel free to add this arch to
kernel-xenU.spec. Any help with this spec will be appreciate.

Yes, it is obsolte.

Yes, other kernels are compiled without xen domU support. Use
kernel-xenU.spec (and please, help to develop/test it on 32 archs).
