Ok, so I tried setting dom0_mem to a variety of values less than 32GB.
 I'm still getting a crash, but now it is more random.  Basically, I'm
watching the boot process via a serial line, and instead of seeing the
dom0 crash output that I posted before, I'm simply seeing the output
stop, and the boot process hanging, in a different spot with each
boot.  Removing the dom0_mem value beings me back to the behavior I
had before, where the dom0 crash output shows up reliably each time.
