Maybe some kind of update whilst the machine was up has broken the

Weird.
Are you sure it's not just something basic? (e.g. you forgot to configure Xen
in menu.lst to output to the serial console, and so you're not getting any
messages from it)

I suspect it's a software change or a configuration problem rather than
anything the matter with your hardware.
