I'm currently upgrading a xen cluster from xen 3.2 to xen 4.1 and also found that issue.
Log's are really quiet about it.
It's just that starting a domU connect's all devices. pvgrub and pygrub menu are working.
then xentop / xl top / xm top shows high cpu load for the particular domU, but nothings
going to happen.

I think that has been discussed already, but I assume it's not solved finally.

Playing around with the console= parameter of domUs kernel didn't change anything.

That misbehaviour has been introduced somewhere at the 4.1 version. 4.0 was one step
in the evaluation of my upgrade path and only 4.1 needs vfb removed from config.

I'm currently stuck at the xm toolstack, as I started adding  some own settings to domU
configs a long while ago which can't be parsed by the xl stack...
So, my tests with xl about that issue weren't too excessive.
