OK,

Herbert has been looking into this too, and he's discovered that it's a 
problem with the RHEL5 snapshot.  The allocation of the shadow_enable is 
done later on in RHEL5 and thus the d->page_list is not empty, where as 
in the xen-unstable/testing version, shadow_enable is called in the 
hypervisor, so it is not affected by this bug.

Thanks,
