Sounds like you're using GRUB2.
See: http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenCommonProblems
It's a known issue. Xen 4.0.1-rc6 has that fixed.
If you use Xen 4.0.1-rc5 or older version you need to add "dummy=dummy"
as the first parameter to grub config. It's explained in the wiki page above.

You should be able to use something like this:
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git
linux-2.6-xen
cd linux-2.6-xen
git checkout -b xen/stable-2.6.32.x origin/xen/stable-2.6.32.x
git checkout fe6e0879f323b2352aae9dddbb2b253334e10d6c
That should give you 2.6.32.10 .. just before 2.6.32.11 merge.
I haven't tested/tried that exact version myself,
so choose some other version from some other date if it doesn't work.
Use the online changelog browser to browse through the changelog,
and then open some 'commit' message to get the commit id for "git checkout":

Go to the source tree directory where the dom0 kernel was compiled
(it needs to be the exact source tree for the kernel you boot).
And run:
gdb vmlinux
Then execute the following commands:
(gdb) x/i 0xc17a56a1
(gdb) list *0xc17a56a1
(c17a56a1 is the EIP value from the crashlog).
And paste the output here.
