No, there's no generic mechanism for sharing char devices. The way in which it makes sense to multiplex devices between domains is typically very device-secific: With a dvice like a tape you'd presumably only want to let one domain access it at a time, perhaps with a hard interlock as to which tape is in the drive. Fortunately, the bandwidth is pretty low, so it's probably easiest to setup a network based soloution rather than doing something Xen specific. I presume such daemons already exist (?)
