I have two firm datapoints: 32-bit 4.0 (as shipped in Debian Squeeze)
works OK; 64-bit xen-unstable with a 64-bit debian testing kernel fails.
I tried some other configurations but don't remember the details.

The problem I saw was that during n1 dom0 boot the screen would go black
and the cpu usage hit 100%.  Sampling the vCPU state showed plausible
hypercalls being made and it didn't seem to be stuck in one particular
loop.

Thanks.  I tried this patch and it made no difference, though it's
possible that I slipped up somewhere installing the new libxc.

If I get time next week I'll dig into it further. 

Cheers,

Tim.
