I would like to reproduce this first and for that I will need at least
config file that is used for launching the guest ('memory' and 'maxmem'
for sure but having the whole file would be better) as well as guest's
kernel config file. Knowing what xen boot options are as well as if
there is anything "interesting" in /etc/xen/{xl.conf|xend-config.sxp}
may also be helpful.

But seeing debug output definitely won't hurt. In fact, add 'debug
loglevel=8 memblock=debug' to boot line for good measure (I hope it
won't be too much output).
