What MACHINE it is won't make much of a difference (afaik Linux doesn't
have any logic to figure out what the hardware looks like much beyond
figuring which model and mode of processor it is being run on). The
architecture being built for is a different matter.

Possibly, but I've just repro'd the problem (although, as you say,
x86_64 build doesn't have the same problem!)

And I believe I know what the problem is too: The subarchitecture in the
config isn't set to "Xen" but "PC-compatible".
