As Mark says this has already been fixed in Xen upstream, and the fix
should be present at least in Xen 4.4 and the upcoming Xen 4.5. The Xen
continuous test system also tests each Xen commit against FreeBSD 10.1,
which includes performing x10 migrations in a row:

http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~xensrcts/logs/33395/test-amd64-i386-freebsd10-amd64/14.ts-guest-localmigrate.log

After each migration the date inside of the guest is printed in order to
make sure no skew happens.

Roger.
