SMP domains is one of the new features in 3.0, yes.

This and several of the others clearly involve some changes for the OS
port running within the domain.  Has anyone looked into what changes
are involved updating the port to the Xen 3 'machine' ?

Right now, because all the Gentoo Xen packages are for Xen 3.0_pre, I
can't easily run NetBSD and Gentoo domains on the same box - manually
futzing with linux kernels and patches requires rather more
nose-holding than I can be bothered with.
