Sometimes it's the obvious things that catch you out - that looks
suspicious to me too! [And perhaps more important than the number of
serial ports: is the second (first is ttyS0) connected to your
terminal?]


I doubt is has anything to do with the serial ports. I might be missing something if for some reason it's sending data to the other port, but not much. It reboots immediately after the xen kernel loads.

And I doubt it's sending data to the wrong serial port. This is a server machine with BIOS, grub, kernel, and getty output all coming to the right port.
