OK have rebuilt the machine from the ground up. DVD install then `yum update`
What works:
xendom0-97/xen-4.0.0 runs most domU images (not WinXP - runs for a while then
locks up). Even the old FC6 domUs run well.
Anything in "xm log" when the WinXP locks up? or "xm dmesg" ? or in
/var/log/xen/*
What doesn't:
xendom0-105/xen-4.0.0 crashes and burns badly with a pv32fc12 domU (so badly
the keyboard lights blink in pain. Reset button required. Lots and lots of
hypervisorish stuff all over the screen. Very likely the cause is noted in
there somewhere).
Please set up a serial console so you can capture the full boot and error/crash messages:

A couple of questions:
- Do you have "nomodeset" parameter for the dom0 kernel?
- Did you limit dom0 memory to, say, 1024 MB ?
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenBestPractices
Not tested:
xen-3.4.3 with either kernel. Is this version of Xen more likely to react in a
more stable manner? Or is this a kernel thing?
You can try. I'd guess it's the dom0 kernel, and not Xen itself.
