Actually I found the cause and I strongly disagree with the above:

With which part exactly? (You cited two statements)

The
reason the domU was blocking was because it didn't have enough memory
in the default setup. Once the memory limits were increased it worked
fine.

I think, this is an issue of the Redhat Xen installer(I assume you are
not trying to manually run anaconda somehow but use virt-install), not
Xen in general.

Why?
1) this problem never occured to me with xen-tools on Debian and Yast on
SuSE
Try turning down your RAM for an automated install and selecting a full install. It *will* hang, or crash.
