OK, so we're back to the same starting point, that being that 
it's evident that crash does not support 32-bit dom0 vmcores
generated by a 64-bit hypervisor.  

The page referenced by the p2m_mfn pointer contains a set of mfn
values that is needed to recreate the kernel's phys_to_machine_mapping[]
array, which is needed to translate the kernel's pseudo-physical pfns to
real machine physical addresses (mfns).  Clearly something is out-of-sync
given the contents of the page at bf969000, but I have no idea what that
could be.

In any case, without that essential key, I've pretty much run out of
things to suggest.

Again, I invite the other Xen users/developers on this list to make
any suggestions, or develop support for this configuration.  I actually
don't think it would require a major update, but it's not clear to me
what the problem is.

Dave
