Description of problem:

(XEN) domain_crash_sync called from shadow32.c:1100
(XEN) Domain 2 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#1:
(XEN) ----[ Xen-3.0.2-2    Not tainted ]----
(XEN) CPU:    1
(XEN) EIP:    0008:[<0000ea08>]
(XEN) EFLAGS: 00010412   CONTEXT: hvm
(XEN) eax: 12af7000   ebx: 000f699a   ecx: 000f699a   edx: 12aed99a

This cryptic message is caused because a memory allocation fails, due to not
enough memory being ballooned out of dom0 at creation time of the guest.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

xen-3.0.2-0.FC5.1

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start an HVM domain
2. crash and burn
3.
