If a domain doesn't disappear from the list, the usual reason is that according to xen itself it still exists, even though xend has tried to destroy it. It's also possible there's a bug in xend. Is there anything in /etc/log/xend.log? (Only do this if your domains aren't important) Do the zombie domains go away if you restart xend?
