I would expect PAE is disabled in the default build... 

You need to have matching Xen and Dom0 kernel (and if you're not running
a VT/SVM processor, also matching DomU). 

In Linux, you need to set CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G=y [found under X86 processor
configuration->High Memory Support if you use user-friendly
configuration tools]. Remember to have ARCH=xen set when using the
configuration tool. 

In Config.mk (in your XEN_ROOT directory), you need to set
XEN_TARGET_X86_PAE=y [or you can do "export XEN_TARGET_X86_PAE=y" before
you start your build, if you prefer].
