I grabbed Xen 3.4.1-1 src.rpm from:
http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/xen/3.4.1/1.fc12/

and rebuilt that for F11.

The next problem was that libvirt package in Fedora 11 has a bug, which causes it
to crash (segfault) when virt-viewer is started. This crash only happens with Xen 3.4, not with Xen 3.3.

Patch for the libvirt bug is here:
http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=commit;h=14435163a086c0bcdff04308077fa46a5fa08bb0

Upcoming libvirt update for F11 will fix this. After manually applying that
patch and rebuilding libvirt I'm now able to successfully install new guests
using virt-install and connect to their console by virt-viewer.
