Looks like you're running off the top of the p2m ; your domain has 800Mb 
'maxmem' and hence should have a p2m covering 800 + 8 (slack) = 808Mb. 
However entry 206868 is for the physical page just beyond that. 

Can you check the value you're getting for p2m_size in xc_domain_save.c, 
e.g. apply the following? 

diff -r d79436447a05 tools/libxc/xc_domain_save.c

     /* Get the size of the P2M table */
     p2m_size = xc_memory_op(xc_handle, XENMEM_maximum_gpfn, &dom) + 1;
+    DPRINTF("DBG - got size of p2m table as %ld\n", p2m_size);
 
     /* Domain is still running at this point */

cheers,
