Sure. But those options (especially for Xen) will make the progress of
guests (especially if they do something weird) much more verbose.

Could be... have you tried turning CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_SOMETHING off?

And are you using QEMU for this guest? Right now, the frame buffer (xen-fbfront)
in domU pv-ops causes a page-fault that hangs DomU. This only surfaces if you
are using 'vfb' in your .xm file.
