So I retrieved netbsd-3 via cvs. On my NetBSD/i386 3.99.21 build system, I 
did:

cd /usr/src/netbsd-3/src/sys/lkm/net/pf

modified the Makefile to create Makefile.reed with:

-CPPFLAGS+=     -I$S/dist/pf -I$S -DINET6 -DINET
+CPPFLAGS+=     -I$S/dist/pf -I$S -DINET6 -DINET -DDIAGNOSTIC -DDEBUG

and the ran:

 make USETOOLS=NEVER -f Makefile.reed

I copied the resulting pf.o to the NetBSD 3.0 (XENU) system and ran:

# /sbin/modload pf.o
Module loaded as ID 0
# modstat
Type    Id   Offset Loadaddr Size Info     Rev Module Name
DEV       0  -1/161 cb820000 0098 cb8413a0   2 pf

Moments later it panicked. (Not at modload time.)

Went to console and saw:

So what is the correct way to build a pf.o?

Does anyone use kernel modules with Xen?

(I still can't figure out how it worked for me a couple weeks ago.)

Thanks,
