Pkg xen devel - Jun 2007 - changing pae mode in security update?

Hi,
Did I get it right or is it a confusion in my mirrors, that the change 
from linux-image-2.6.18-3-xen-686 to linux-image-2.6.18-4-xen-686 also 
changed the PAE mode of the Kernel?

After installing this new version and and changeing the kernel in a domU 
config, I get:

Error: (2, 'Invalid kernel', 'xc_dom_compat_check: guest type 
xen-3.0-x86_32p not supported by xen kernel, sorry\n')

So, to run the domain with this new (security fix) Kernel, I have to 
reboot my whole Dom0, right?

correct. -4-xen-686 is a pae kernel.

x86-32p kernels can only run on the pae hypervisor.

you have to use the -pae hypervisor and the -4-xen-686 kernel image on your 
dom0, so rebooting is one part of this update process ;)
