With a current xen-unstable, I'm seeing a hang on boot just after bringing up all the cpus:

The console is an IPMI SoL console. It appears as com3 (0x3e8 irq 5), so I've faked out com2 to point to it, since Xen seems to deny the existence of ports beyond com2. 

Linux works fine with ttyS2 as its serial console.
I wonder if the (presumably emulated) serial device has some quirk that causes it to disagree with Xen's serial console here. Is there anything significant about that particular moment? Does it try to start using interrupts there? 

When I add "sync_console", it gets past here as expected and loads dom0:
