Also if you can reproduce this problem running linux-2.6.18-xen on dom0,
then please send an email to xen-devel about this. Keir wants to release Xen
3.4.1 final early next week, and this sounds like something that might be
good to check before the release.
If this problem happens running for example Debian lenny 2.6.26-xen kernel in
dom0,
or some other 2.6.27, 2.6.29, 2.6.30 dom0 kernel then it _could_ be a bug in
them, and not in Xen.
