No, it is not relevant since 2006
It may be relevant since it depends on the guest. It's not clear in the original post whether it's the host or the guest that's 5.2. In the worst case, the guests will just be a little slow. :)

The hosts are Centos 5.2 x86_64 systems. The guests will initially be Debian Sarge i386 systems using HVM virtualization (legacy systems, don't ask) but hopefully these will be replaced eventually by Centos guests too. What exactly determines whether the guests will be running slow or not and how "slow" are we talking about?

It depends on the version of glibc and how it's compiled and/or configured. The xen list archives is probably the best place to look for more information.
