Jeremy, just to make sure, does the kbd semaphore patch not fix this
case too?

kernel /xen.gz?  Do you really want to load the Xen hypervisor?
:) Actually this is odd: if I try the same, I get

xc_dom_bzimageloader.c:350: panic: xc_dom_probe_bzimage_kernel: kernel is not a 
bzImage
ERROR Invalid kernel: elf_xen_note_check: ERROR: Not a Xen-ELF image: No ELF 
notes or '__xen_guest' section found.

instead. I do not have any issue booting the PV linux kernels, using a
3.4 hypervisor.
