Amazon runs a very old Redhat version of Xen and they aren't forthcoming =
about the specific version, presumably out of security concerns.

3.0.3 doesn't support linear page tables and thus requires some pmap =
futzing. Apart from that I don't have enough specifics to go on. If =
someone told me the precise version and gave me the corresponding RH =
patches I'd be much more interested. Sorry for the inconvenience.
