If your machine is alive enough to be able to read messages from its other serial console port, you might as well just use 'xm dmesg'. The main purpose of having a serial line is for when things have gone smelly... Currently, if you're using the serial port for Xen you can't use any of the serial ports directly from dom0 (the UART driver isn't compiled into the kernel, and won't work if it is). Now that we emulate iopl its actually easy to fix this, so we'll do this shortly.
