I can build a number of instances at once with XenServer. I had a merge to fix an issue with parallel xapi calls maybe a month or 2 ago, and after then everything's been fine.

This is some sort of kernel bug according to the pastes above. Notice this line:

"
 kernel:[50922.735291] general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP
"

Due to the crash caught in the kernel, it has left some processes in a infinite disk wait state and thus they can't be killed. Since the kernel is hosed, all you can do is reboot.

What version of XenServer is this? What kernel?
