OK, I tried xen-3.4-testing.hg and the system booted fine ;-)
Then I did a fresh hg pull from xen-unstable and the boot stopped in

Attached are the loggings from the serial console for both hypervisors.
The tests with the performance counters needs more time for some preparations.
Thanks.
Dietmar.
