Hi,
I had similar problem. I have several Win7 virtual machines with passed VGA 
where we play games with friends.
Some games were not able to connect to LAN game when 0.11.0.308 were in place.
Then I've installed 0.11.0.322 mentioned in
http://old-list-archives.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2011-09/msg01159.html
and everything runs just fine.
But they are not available to download anymore.
