Xen devel - May 2007 - Strange Oops

I''m currently running 3.0.4-1, but I''ve also had this problem
before
it.  On all of my machines, simply running xenstore-ls crashes the  
machine, every time.  I haven''t been able to capture the Oops, but I  
have run xenstore-tool check and tried removing the tdb file and  
letting Xen regenerate it (both to no avail).  Is this normal?

Not normal!

My best guess is that you are hitting a BUG() in the xenstore kernel driver
in dom0, which is fixed in 3.0.5. This BUG() is triggered if you have any
fields in xenstore that are very long.
