Are you 100% sure it's that cset?

Yes, I am. I found that c/s by bisecting. I used the latest xen-kernel
and toolchain, just replaced the hvmloader binary and booted a
Win7 guest (both 32bit and 64bit) with one vcpu.

An hvmloader binary built from c/s 23452 works.
BTW: I use the rombios.

From a first glance, bios_info_setup() is called earlier with this c/s.
