I have now got xen/next to boot on x86_64, though I can't start the client (which may be the issue with xen 4 rc4 and pygrub which I think someone mentioned). However with i386 it crashes on boot. The crash is in xen_set_pte, some logs and debugging are attached.

You're booting a PV domU using a stock Fedora kernel?

No, I am booting a Fedora + xen/next based dom0 kernel. This now works for me on x86_64 but not i686.

You're doing better than me in that case; I get a sullen hang in pvgrub. I can boot hvm domains OK, so I think the backends/xenstore are all OK.

Are you using pygrub or pvgrub? If the latter, can you post whatever output it generates?

I was trying pygrub which gets an elf warning suggesting that it is thinks pygrub is an incorrect kernel rather than a boot loader. I will try pvgrub to see if I am any more successful.
