To clarify:

        - libc6-xen was already installed. In its initial state, I was  
getting error messages and slow performance.
        - Changed hwcap from 1 to 0, restarted machine, error messages are  
now gone.

This is also the recommended course of action on the Debian wiki:

        http://wiki.debian.org/Xen#A4gbsegfixuperrors

Can you please explain why this is broken? Is there some other reason  
why I am getting error messages?

Kind regards,
Samuel
