That's enough explanation for me to read further on, thanks.

The most verbose log anomalies that I've noticed so far I've included
above.  Nothing else I've noticed in dmesg, xl dmesg, journalctl, serial
console output, /var/log/*, etc.

I _do_ also find in /var/log/xen/*,

        cat qemu-dm-test1.log
                qemu: terminating on signal 1 from pid 1176

and,

        cat xl-test2.log
                Waiting for domain pvr (domid 2) to die [pid 2976]

Not much detail there.  Either I'm not looking in the right places, my
logging level isn't sufficient, or there isn't anything else.  I'll keep
digging on logs.

Something's clearly changed recently.  Although I've made pkg-upgrades @
Dom0, I haven't made any knowing changes to the failing Guest.  The two
Guest domains are supposed to be roughly similar; different RAM
allocations, basically.  They _used_ to both launch @boot without error;
they still do, manually.  But, a test of 10 reboots resulted in 10
identical @boot failures -- all & only this same Guest.  Supports your
suggestion that there's something specific to this Guest.
