I can confirm the latest symptoms when trying to launch
a domU: domU gets set up but never seems to get scheduled.
Indeed several domU's can be launched and nothing gets
scheduled. In all cases (for me at least), dom0 continues
to run.
I suspect that this is a softirq delivery problem similar to
the one you (Haavard) saw and identified a fix for last week.

P.S. Note xen-ia64-devel list cc'ed but I haven't seen
anyone from Intel sign up yet so have also cc'ed ipf-xen@intel
for now.
