Yeah, I've seen that. It does not give that much information however.

More specifically, I've tested with two dom0 pv_ops kernels now, and since it's 
still 
reproducable on the latest xen/stable platform, I'm guessing it either has to 
do with vlan'ing or
the tg3 driver , in combination with netback.

I was hoping some Xen developers could shed some light on this.
I already conversed with Jeremy about this, and he pointed me to this mailing 
list.
