I don't know. You can check the sources yourself to find out :)
Redhat has listed the package version where the bug is fixed (see the
mentioned RH bugzilla), so if you use RHEL/Centos packages you can
wait for it to be available.

As for Xen 3.4, there seems to be other problems :

So at this moment I suggest your best option is to have snapshot/clone
features at storage level. Something that a Netapp box or zfs-based
SAN/NAS would provide. The cheapest way to do so is to have an
opensolaris server exporting zvols using iscsi.
