Is this the xenlinux kernel from Xen.org? Why not stick with stock?

If this kernel boots you will see the issue you described.

Can you give the output of rpm -qa "*xen*"

I guess with the appearence of xenlinux you downloaded the tarball and  
did a make install which makes reinstallation of Xen extremely  
difficult.
Next time use the src.rpm from 3.2 to build an rpm package which makes  
reinstalls a lot easier.
It is wholly possible that the Xen-libs package from CentOS was still  
installed when you did the make install and then was upgraded which  
wrote over your 3.3 libs with 3.1 libs.
I hope not but an rpm -qa will show us.
