Paravirtualized pv_ops Xen domU (guest) support is included in the default kernels; "kernel-PAE" for 32bit and "kernel" for 64bit Fedora 10.
Fedora 11 will also ship with PV pv_ops Xen domU support included in the default kernels.
There's this bug in F10 which affects 32bit domU installs: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=470905
Also see this tip if you want to install 32bit F10 domUs: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-xen/2009-March/msg00067.html
F11 (when it's out) should also install out of the box as a Xen PV domU.
Also earlier Fedora versions should work as a domU out of the box.
If you're talking about dom0 (host) then Fedora 8 is currently the latest Fedora release having Xen dom0 capable kernel.
dom0 support will be added back to Fedora when pv_ops dom0 support is included in the vanilla/mainline Linux kernels (merging should happen for Linux 2.6.30).
