I think AGP is still not working perfectly. Other people were having problems 
with it, too. See 
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2005-03/msg00375.html and 
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2005-03/msg00593.html.

I will add this to my howto.

I have no clue. I guess, if the kernel has support for ttyS0 it should work. 
Maybe someone from the developers can help you here.
