That's unfortunate.  If you had any HVM capable machines you could run those 
domains using a native OpenSSI kernel instead of paravirt...  Or possibly 
just run Xen 2.0 in an HVM virtual machine (I'd imagine that'd work; I find 
Xen 3 runs quite fine under HVM for development work - with a few quirks and 
a bit of a slowdown).

Cheers,
