Similar problem here. CPU usage of domU is reported at 100% and the initial 
instance of the problem is presented with continual beeping when attempting 
to console a domU (on my linux kernel with the pc speaker compiled in at 
least).

It seems to only occur when I have a corrupt terminal. So long as I ensure the 
terminal is clean before reconnecting, I don't seem to have the problem. I 
can't  definitively say it is the terminal though and even then, you would 
expect the console to catch any exceptions and report, not loop. So there is 
definitely something funny going on.
