Ok thanks, I've booted the DomU with:

$ cat /proc/cmdline
root=UUID=63ade949-ee67-4afb-8fe7-ecd96faa15e2 ro enforcemodulesig=1
selinux=0 fsck.repair=yes loglevel=7 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,38400n8

I've left a screen session attached to the console (via xl console) and
I'll see if that turns anything up. As this seems to be rather
unpredictable when it happens, it may take a day or two to get anything.
I just hope its more than the syslog output :)
