>Description:
When I have tried to install FreeBSD 9.1 as guest in XenClient 4.5.5, I have detected these three problems:
1. USB cannot work
2. Kernel, even GENERIC, does not load, when SafeMode = On (default)
3. When kernel starts load, console screen flicks and restore picture only after finishing load system. That was occured only with XenClient 4.5.5, with previous version (was 4.5.1) was OK.

This is a kernel log:

What next:
In spite of specifying RAM 512Mb in configuration of guest, kernel insists on 448 Mb. Why?
Notify message about "usbus0: controller did not stop" - USB completely useless 
RealTek card - emulated, real hardware is 3COM 3c905cx
>How-To-Repeat:
Install XenClient 4.5.5 directly from Citrix site
Install FreeBSD 9.1
Load FreeBSD and try to run
At this environment FreeBSD is quite useless

None
