I  Just tried with the last version of clonezilla that worked and it's still 
the same.  That system has xen 4.1.0 but not sure what was on it when I ran 
clonezilla.
I suspect it's the new version of xen that does it.

I put in a bug report to clonezilla for if excepted xvda there would be no 
problem.
