After trying lots of different setups i found the problem, somehow if xen/ is 
compiled with gcc-4.2 domU hangs forever as i described but dom0 boots/works 
fine without a problem. So here are the some more findings;

* gcc-3.4.6 compiled xen/ and gcc-4.2 compiled dom0/domU kernels (3.0.4_1) 
works well, 

* gcc-4.2 compiled xen/ and gcc-3.4.6 compiled dom0/domU kernels (3.0.3) hangs 
as described,

So neither gcc-4.2 generates wrong code for hypervisor or xen/ has some bugs 
triggered by gcc-4.2. Is there a way to debug/investigate so i can try to 
find the problem?

Cheers
