Whoa. The timer is way off. Did you specify any specific timer clock
on the bootup line? Are you using the 4.0.1 or xen-unstable hypervisor?

Hmm, that ought to work - unless you are using an older hypervisor.

Hmmmm.. That does work on my boxes, so I am surprised you see this. What

 loglvl=3Dall'
You should see something from the (XEN): .. about ACPI shutdown.
