Only just got my hands on the notebook to test again. I vaguely
remembered that I had tried putting the loop between lines 134 and 135
previously (with the result being that it still kept rebooting), which
led me to move the loop higher up. Anyway, I've tried this again, and
confirmed what I remembered. If you're interested, I've put my xen
images at the same location as previously, so xen-132-syms is for the
loop inserted between lines 131 and 132, etc.

I'm not clear what you mean by this. Do you want me to change the
source to this and compile it?
128 start_paging:
129 mov $idle_pg_table-__PAGE_OFFSET,%eax
130 mov %eax,%cr3
131 mov %cr0,%eax ; or $0x80050023,%eax
132 mov %eax,%cr0
133 ljmp $(__HYPERVISOR_CS),$1f
134 1: /* Install relocated selectors (FS/GS unused). */
135 lgdt gdt_descr
