Solaris is, and presumably FC6 too.

I forget to mention that this is 3.0.4-based.

We're failing here:

[2007-02-20 13:39:50 xend 100401] INFO (XendCheckpoint:247) Saving memory 
pages: iter 2   0%ERROR Internal error: Error when writing to state file (5)

1049                     /* We have a normal page: just write it directly. */
1050                     if (ratewrite(io_fd, spage, PAGE_SIZE) != PAGE_SIZE) {
1051                         ERROR("Error when writing to state file (5)"

IOW, we're faulting (EFAULT) on the domain's MFN due to the above error.
