I will give this a look to see if it shed any light on the situation.

- The LV goes to Open when the VM starts and stays that way until the VM 
is destroyed
- I have tried messing with the virsh/xen config repeatedly after taking 
backups of them
- The host machine has had no hardware or firmware updates applied to it
- I can and have mounted the VM's file systems using kpartx with no 
troubles at all
- When I dd'd the LV to a .img file and started it with KVM, the 
Bootloader appears as expected
