CentOS 6 probably.

Upstream really can't change the Xen hypervisor too much within
a release as that goes against the distribution's philosophy.

If you really want Xen 3.2, why not download the CentOS 5 rpms
from xen.org and use it. It works transparently with the CentOS
kernel package and updates the CentOS Xen packages.

Just remember to change the Xen kernel name in grub each time
the CentOS kernel changes! I still forget to do this and it
bites me all the time :-(
