It being taken from the source tree is precisely the issue.

I don't think that would work. The settings from ./.config are
needed ahead of
include $(XEN_ROOT)/config/$(XEN_OS).mk
include $(XEN_ROOT)/config/$(XEN_TARGET_ARCH).mk
which come later in Config.mk, at least when e.g. config/StdGNU.mk
properly used ?= . Plus obviously for the 2nd of the lines above
to use the right file, XEN_TARGET_ARCH already needs to be set to
its designated value (same would of course be true for XEN_OS, if
one was to override that).
