That might be due to the CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR_AGGREGATOR being compiled
in your kernel (df88b2d96e36d9a9e325bfcd12eb45671cbbc937).
If you don't have CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR_AGGREG.. as either module or built-in
can you get to lower C-states?

That is strange. I seem to be able to get that.

Could be, but in 3.4 was when the xen-acpi-processor was introduced so it 
_should_ be working.
The only thought I have for the low C-states is the acpi_pad, but nothing else.
