It's mentioned in several places, including the Handbook:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/virtualization-guest.html

"Download the FreeBSD domU kernel for Xen 3.0 and disk image from 
http://www.fsmware.com/"

I'd be happy to host the files that used to be on that site if it would help - 
it would be good to get the broken links fixed because I came across the same 
problem and ended up having to create a Xen image manually.
