Have you looked in the logs to see if any further details are present 
there?  Also, you may want to dial up debug verbosity, using 
LIBVIRT_DEBUG and friends, as documented here: 
http://libvirt.org/logging.html

Beyond that, all I can suggest is stepping through things with gdb; I'm 
not familiar enough with xen myself to recognize these symptoms.
