Try the xe-guest-utilities which uses xen-tools.  You may have to hack
/usr/local/sbin/xe-update-guest-attrs near the bottom to provide a
MinorVersion and/or MicroVersion higher than the default to get the
hypervisor to accept it as recent enough.  For example under a 6.0.2
environment you could try:

xenstore_write_cached "attr/PVAddons/MajorVersion" "6"
xenstore_write_cached "attr/PVAddons/MinorVersion" "0"
xenstore_write_cached "attr/PVAddons/MicroVersion" "99"

Once you enable and run /usr/local/etc/rc.d/xenguest you should be in
business.
