OK, I got xenlinux (now version 2.6.12 and transparently
paravirtualized) up and working in hg at:

http://xenbits.xensource.com/ext/xenlinux-ia64-2.6.12.hg

The "latest" xen-ia64 is at:

http://xenbits.xensource.com/ext/xen-ia64-unstable.hg

however, as previously posted, there are recent core changes
that break Xen/ia64.  If you fall back to changeset 5606,
those bits have been tested (with changeset 9 of the above
xenlinux, which is currently the tip) and are known to work.

Special thanks to James Bulpin for help getting the
new repositories working!
