There is one of the CoolConfigurations on the Xen wiki that does
something similar to this.

I haven't tried this but sounds like with enough hacking one can get it
to work. Although the author of the configuration wasn't very specific,
I am guessing he did PCI pass thru to a paravirtualized domain. It wont
work with Windows or a fully virtualized guest. But with some patience,
it might work. Again, I haven't tried this solution so it might be smoke
and mirrors.
