If I understand correctly you have upstream qemu from both distro'sqemu 
package and from xen source, in this case if distro's qemu have xen 
support enabled you can use it instead compile it also from xen 
source... on xen configure ./configure ... --with-system-qemu=/path/qemu 
(with path of qemu's distro binary)
