Got it. If I put the consoles as
"console=tty0 xencons=hvc console=hvc0", the startup messages become 
visible on the serial console.

I must add, the configuration of getty is unnecessary in /etc/inittab. 
The serial console is mapped to hvc0, inittab already defines a spawn of 
a getty on that tty.
Another thing, /sbin/getty is simply unavailable on XCP 1.6 default 
install. For any purpose, /sbin/mingetty or /sbin/agetty should be used.

A login on a serial console appears as attached to TTY hvc0, no 
alteration of securetty is required.

It still does something wired around [   10.000000], when detecting USB.
The output changed slightly after changing the console order in kernel's 
boot parameters.
Was:
[    9.870053] usb 1-1.6.1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and 
address 4
[    9.990896] u[   20.637067] kjournald starting.  Commit interval 15 
seconds
[   20.637083] EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.


Now:
[   10.524283] usb 1-1.6.1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and 
address 4

Thank you.
