According to
        http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=xen-linux-system

Lenny has:
        xen-linux-system-2.6.26-1-xen-686
        xen-linux-system-2.6.26-1-xen-amd64
and (via security)
        xen-linux-system-2.6.26-2-xen-686
        xen-linux-system-2.6.26-2-xen-amd64

Sarge/Sid has:
        xen-linux-system-2.6.32-5-xen-686
        xen-linux-system-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64
and (the new additions)
        xen-linux-system-2.6-xen-686
        xen-linux-system-2.6-xen-amd64

With no overlap in package names, there's no automated mechanism for
upgrades; Lenny users are just left with obsolete packages installed
until they tidy things up.  Unless of course there's some Lenny Xen
package that gets upgraded into a dummy transition package pulling
in all the Xen 4.0 stuff, but if that exists I'm not seeing it.

(Or unless blah blah manual kernel upgrade blah blah udev, but since
nobody's answering that question I'll assume it's a "no".)
