As a follow on to this, if you could try this patch:
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/cherry/tmp/port-xen/breakout1/xen-pae-mp-pmap.diff

over my last commit on -current:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2011/08/13/msg025813.html

Probably best to do this via: 
$ cvs update -D "Sat, 13 Aug 2011 20:24:20 +0000"

and then apply the patch.

That should get you MP on XEN3PAE_DOM0 and DOMU

I'd be keen to know how that goes.

specifically what you get via:

# cpuctl list

and 

# vmstat -e

A top(1) snapshot would be good too.
