Here is another clue from syslog. Below is the full log, but the hang 
seems to accur when the following log messages are triggered (there's a 
bunch of them at the end):
Nov 14 11:59:47 dom0-0-50-45-5d-6a-bc TAPDISK: AIO_LOCK or 
iocb_free_count (0) failed[869040]
I'm a little frustrated with re-building the blktap user-space tools 
myself. When I do so, I get the following kernel messages:
Nov 13 13:44:08 dom0-0-50-45-5d-6a-bc kernel: blk_tap: invalid user 
buffer -- could not remap it
Nov 13 13:44:08 dom0-0-50-45-5d-6a-bc kernel: blk_tap: Reached Fail_flush
Nov 13 13:44:08 dom0-0-50-45-5d-6a-bc kernel: blk_tap: BLKTAP_INVALID_HANDLE

But I don't get these when I use the (PAE) binary distribution. I'm only 
rebuilding the blktap tools, not the rest, so perhaps my config is not 
right (incompatible with the PAE kernel somehow). If you know off-hand 
what the problem is then I can maybe chase down the offset issue more 
productively.
