I had the same problem when I compiled Xen 3.3. 

I was getting "domain not halted" when I tried to delete a domain that 
was halted.
I resolved the  problem by commenting out the lines 1064-1067 in 
/usr/lib64/python/xen/xend/XendDomain.py
Then, when I run "xm delete domainXXX"  it deleted the domain.  I could 
then execute "xm new domainXXX" to make a new domain with the same old 
domain name.
