The upcomming linux-2.6 release will introduce some changes in the Xen support.
i386 gets PAE only
The i386 images gets PAE only. The main cause is a bug in this versions which makes non-PAE images crash on core dumps. The patch is from Fedora, which only ships PAE images; so it is unlikely that they will fix it.
Network breaks with older guests
There is a bug in it, which makes older kernels on the guests break on a host which uses the new version. The reason is for know unknown. The kernel logs many of the following errors:
kernel: xen_net: Memory squeeze in netback driver.
