I tried time ago qemu 1.7 and qemu 2.0 on start of development without 
problem on domUs start but I'll retry.

I tried to use gdb following this old post:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2011-12/msg02575.html
but with same changes:

/usr/lib/xen/bin# vi qemu-system-i386
#!/bin/sh
exec gdbserver 0.0.0.0:1234 /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-system-i386.bak "$@"

gdb /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-system-i386.bak
target remote localhost:1234

This command with gdb on qemu fails:
xl -vvv create /etc/xen/wheezy.cfg
...
libxl: error: libxl_dm.c:1378:device_model_spawn_outcome: domain 13 
device model: spawn failed (rc=-3)
libxl: error: libxl_create.c:1207:domcreate_devmodel_started: device 
model did not start: -3
libxl: debug: libxl_dm.c:1485:kill_device_model: Device Model signaled
...

the dom0 syslog show segfault also in this case and the qemu log is 
different on first lines (probably for gdbserver):
less /var/log/xen/qemu-dm-wheezy.log
Process /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-system-i386.bak created; pid = 8238

the qemu include debug and is not stripped:
file /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-system-i386.bak
/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-system-i386.bak: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, 
x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for 
GNU/Linux 2.6.26, 
BuildID[sha1]=0x5aa043b5524d74d166ead62527343080384d586b, not stripped
and I also tried:
aptitude install libc6-dbg
but same result.

I not understand what I missed for correct xl create and/or gdb 
informations.
Can someone help me please?

Thanks for any reply
