 All in all, this is the first 2.6.37+ dom0 that even booted using the
 xen hypervisor. That makes it, for me, a huge improvement. :D I'll try
 provisioning a couple domUs for further testing.
 
 Thanks for the hard work, it really is appreciated!

Another note; When I tried to sleep the machine, it hung. Screen went
dark and the power button pulsed. I had to hard-reset the machine. :)

Yet another; Normal power-off hung as well. Had to cold-boot the laptop.
In case it matters, it's a Thinkpad T400s.

note: taken under the plain kernel, not while booting via xen.

Try with kernel-2.6.38-0.rc3.git0.1.fc15 at 
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=216558 (the latest 
regular rawhide kernel, though a later was is currently being built).
If that shows the same behaviour you can probably file a bug somewhere 
(eg. http://bugzilla.redhat.com/ ) because it will be a Fedora or mainline 
kernel issue.

I should mention; running the same kernel without the Xen microkernel
works fine. I can suspend, power off and I don't experience the jitters.
I'll still install this though, to be certain.

 Will do, and will report.

Booted the stock kernel above, and it slept and powered off cleanly, no
jitters and cpu frequency scaling worked. Same with your xen'ified
kernel when /not/ running through kernel=xen.gz.
