When that happens, I have to "xm destroy" the newly created domU :)

I believe that's because --output (/var/run/xend/boot/xenbl.3079 in my 
example) is a pipe, and xen is simply waiting on that pipe. It doesn't 
know that the bootloader has quit. Perhaps you can try feeding it with 
an empty line, or perhaps some garbage like
linux (kernel /tmp/not_found)(ramdisk /tmp/not_found)(args "")

whose purpose is simply to tell xen it has finished. AFAIK, if xen can't 
find the mentioned kernel/initrd it simply quits with an error message 
anyway.
