Until 3.0.3 the vnc setting was only for hvm guests. But I never got
it to automatically start the viewer, I always start it manually with
vncviewer <hostname>,
This is no problem, as vnc is used anyway to export the graphical
console, either to a non-privileged user on the localhost, or to be
reachable from the outside.

In xen 3.0.4 I read somewhere that work has been done to also export
the graphical console of paravirtualized guests - but I read something
with framebuffer, so I am not sure if the vnc can be applied there
also in 3.0.4.
Maybe it is supposed to work, that's why the vnc ports is opened, but
you are missing a dependency or something. Look in the logs, if there
are any errors about not being able to start vnc coorectly.

Maybe you check xm help/xm create --help for information. And in the
sources of create.py the settings especially used by hvm are marked
somewhere.
