Okay, I'll try looking for BIOS updates; I'm not in front of the 
machine right now, but dmidecode suggests that it's running the most 
recent release from the vendor's website.  There's some suggestion 
online that there's a newer beta release somewhere; I'll see if I can 
track that down.
Also, it appears that I'm seeing APIC problems with stand-alone Linux 
on this box--the clock is running at 2x real time.  When I get home, 
I'll try booting Xen with the APIC disabled and see if it makes any 
difference.
