why should it pose a problem at all?
Xen as architecture is supported out of the box with
Linux-VServer and a mainline kernel, adding specific
Xen patches/updates (for domU) should pose no problem
and running a dom0 doesn't seem a good idea anyway
as you could use Linux-VServer in the first place :)
